The Joint Genome Institute provides tools and data that support technologies that are essential to our clean energy future.

KBase enables researchers to explore complex genomic and other biological data quickly and efficiently.

Duke University scientists constructed a microbial food web to investigate how climate change and excess nutrients could affect the organisms in it.

Researchers sometimes genetically engineer microorganisms—such as fungi—to convert renewable feedstock materials into useful biofuel or biochemical products. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which allows researchers to quickly amplify DNA sequences for analysis, is one of the most essential tools in this process. When working to synthesize biofuels using fungi, PCR is particularly important for evaluating various strains of mutated fungi.

The Spruce and Peatland Responses Under Changing Environments (SPRUCE) experiment provides a look into potential futures under climate change.

While conducting aerial surveys over bald eagle nesting areas on Savannah River Site (SRS), a U.S. Forest Service wildlife biologist found a special surprise: an active bald eagle nest along the edge of one of the site’s lakes.

The University of Georgia’s Savannah River Ecology Laboratory (SREL) recently participated in a county-wide job shadow day, giving high school juniors and seniors a glimpse into available science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) roles on Savannah River Site once they graduate.
