The Center for Bioenergy Innovation (CBI) vision is to accelerate domestication of bioenergy-relevant plants and microbes to enable high-impact, value-added, co-product development at multiple points in the bioenergy supply chain.
Projects
The National Microbiome Data Collaborative (NMDC), is a new Department of Energy initiative led by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), in partnership with Oak Ridge (ORNL), Los Alamos (LANL), and Pacific Northwest (PNNL) national laboratories. The NMDC will leverage DOE’s existing data-science resources and high-performance computing systems to develop a framework that facilitates more efficient use of microbiome data for applications in energy, environment, health, and agriculture.
