Jay Keasling Awarded Bakar Prize to engineer bacteria to produce probiotics to treat skin diseases caused by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus.
Taking Flight with Biofuels and Carbon Crops
A recent study by Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI) researchers reveals which crop-based feedstocks offer the greatest potential for a plentiful, cost-competitive, renewable alternative to petroleum-based jet fuel, while also maximizing atmospheric carbon removal.
Speeding up Biomanufacturing with a Turnkey Framework
Researchers from the Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI) developed a new framework that reduces the time of developing novel bioproducts. This new workflow, called Product Substrate Pairing (PSP), has already shown great promise for engineering strains that can convert common bacterial food sources into target molecules.
Tiny Microbes Could Brew Big Benefits for Green Biomanufacturing
A research team led by Jay Keasling, Senior Faculty Scientist in the Biological Systems and Engineering and CEO of the Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI), has engineered bacteria to produce new-to-nature carbon products that could provide a powerful route to sustainable biochemicals.
