Title :

Understanding Biological Capabilities at All Scales Needed to Support Systems Biology Investigations of Cellulosic Biomass (revised January 2008)

Description :

Capabilities are needed to bring together the biological, physical, computational, and engineering sciences to create a new infrastructure for biology and the industrial biotechnology in the 21st Century. This figure depicts the focus of GTL on building an integrated body of knowledge about behavior, from genomic interactions through ecosystem changes. Simultaneously studying multiple systems related to various aspects of the biofuel problem is powerfully synergistic because enduring biological themes are shared and general principles governing response, structure, and function apply throughout. Accumulating data as they are produced, the GTL Knowledgebase and GTL computational environment will interactively link the capabilities and research efforts, allowing this information to be integrated into a predictive understanding. DOE’s technology programs can work with industry to apply such capabilities and knowledge to a new generation of processes, products, and industries.
