Description Daniel Olson, an Assistant Professor of Engineering at Dartmoth, spoke about Engineering Bacteria for Cellulosic Biofuel Production. "Biofuels made from cellulose are one of the few options available for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the heavy-duty transportation sector, which includes long-haul trucking, ocean shipping, and aviation. Bacteria that natively consume cellulose are good candidates for producing cellulosic biofuels, but in many cases, their metabolism is poorly understood." 2/28/24
