Funded Activity Summary

Interspecies electron transfer in biotechnology. While the project is fundamental in nature, it has direct technological gains to a wide range of biotechnology processes, and in particular, mixed culture anaerobic biotechnology. It therefore promotes Australian bioenergy, biofuel, and commodity renewable chemicals industries, and contributes to the national research priority of an Environmentally Sustainable Australia. In addition, this is a fast moving, high impact area that will demonstrate excellence in Australian research on an international scale. The exciting multidisciplinary nature of the project, excellent management team, and high-class partners will also provide for an excellent experience for the three PhD candidates to be educated through the project.
