JBEI is featured in the new edition of “Biotechnology: Science for the New Millennium, 2017”, a biotech textbook and lab manual, first released in January 2006. The age independent curriculum has been distributed across the country and the 2006 and 2012 editions of BS4NM are being used at over 1200 high schools and over 300 colleges.

The feature was the result of a collaboration during the summer of 2015 between JBEI’s scientists and the curriculum’s author Ellyn Daugherty, a 34 year veteran biology educator. JBEI’s research and bioenergy themes were covered in several chapters of the textbook and lab manual.
