Genomics:GTL Roadmap

The Genomics:GTL Roadmap (August 2005) is an aggressive systems microbiology plan to accelerate the scientific discovery needed to support the development of practical applications for DOE energy and environmental missions. The primary goal of the program is to achieve a predictive understanding of the capabilities of microbes and microbial communities for applications in energy, remediation, and global carbon cycling and sequestration. For a quick overview, see the Frontmatter handout (98 kb).

July 2006 Facilities Update: To accelerate GTL research in the key mission areas of energy, environment, and climate, the Department of Energy Office of Science has revised its planned facilities from technology centers to vertically integrated centers focused on mission problems. The centers will have comprehensive suites of capabilities designed specifically for the mission areas described in this roadmap. See (Factsheet: Office of Science to Revise Plans for Facilities [3/06]).
