Description
The Biofuel Challenge—Making Clean, Green, Renewable Energy aCost-Effective Reality
In the fight against global warming, the need to develop clean, green,and renewable sources of energy has become an international call toaction. The Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI), a newly established U.S.Department of Energy Bioenergy Research Center, is responding byassembling an outstanding team of bioenergy scientists and researchersto meet the challenge
JBEI is a multiorganizational research center that comprises world-classresources and expertise in one facility, which is located in Emeryville,California. The goal of JBEI is to use rapidly advancing scientifictechniques, such as systems and synthetic biology, to accelerate thedevelopment of the nation's biofuels industry. JBEI is managed byLawrence Berkeley National Laboratory with partner employees from fiveinternationally recognized scientific institutions: Sandia NationalLaboratories, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the University ofCalifornia at Davis, the University of California at Berkeley, and theCarnegie Institution for Science.
Sandians working at JBEI's Emeryville facility are essential partners inthis aggressive bioenergy effort and will provide the technicalexpertise needed to produce clean, efficient, and cost-effectivebiofuels on a commercial scale.
Job Description
As an employee of Sandia at JBEI, this postdoctoral appointee will beworking in the field of biomass pretreatment. This position will beresponsible for developing new computational methods and for usingexisting bioinformatics and chemoinformatics techniques to designscreening experiments that optimize lignocellulose cell wall deconstruction
Required and Desired Qualifications
