Title :

DOE Bioenergy Research Centers and Partners (version 1 updated May 2009)

Description :

The three centers are based in geographically diverse locations—one in the Southeast, one in the Midwest, and one on the West Coast—with partners across the nation (see U.S. map, DOE Bioenergy Research Centers and Partners). A peer-review process was used to select DOE’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory to lead the DOE BioEnergy Science Center (BESC) in Tennessee; University of Wisconsin–Madison to lead the DOE Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center (GLBRC); and DOE’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to lead the DOE Joint Bio-Energy Institute (JBEI). Each center represents a multidisciplinary partnership with expertise spanning the physical and biological sciences, including genomics, microbial and plant biology, analytical chemistry, computational biology and bioinformatics, and engineering. Institutional partners include DOE’s world-class national laboratories, universities, private companies, and nonprofit organizations.
