LLNL scientists and collaborators at JBEI have identified a molecular mechanism in bacteria that can be manipulated to promote imidazolium ionic liquid tolerance.

This event brought together 200 students from schools in Berkeley, Emeryville, Richmond, and Oakland.

During the presentation, the undergraduates were judged for their presentation and poster making skills.

Corinne Scown, JBEI's VP of Life-cycle, Economics and Agronomy, recently spoke to Wired UK about how biofuels have the potential to play an important role in the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in aviation.

Ronald was elected in recognition of her distinguished and continuing achievements in original research.

Aviation International News covered JBEI's study “Techno-economic analysis and life-cycle greenhouse gas mitigation cost of five routes to bio-jet fuel blendstocks” which provided evidence that optimizing the biofuel production pipeline is well worth the effort.

Joint BioEnergy Institute researchers demonstrate that jet fuels made from plants could be cost competitive with conventional fossil fuels.

Shih is JBEI's Director of Plant Biosystems Design.

The summit looked at how to harness biotechnology to convert waste streams into valuable low-carbon biofuels and bioproducts.

Nature covered the automatic-design tools that are changing synthetic biology, namely j5, a tool created by JBEI and licensed exclusively to TeselaGen Biotechnology.
