Food Security & Sustainable Agriculture Projects
Harnessing Plants for Carbon Capture
Combat the biggest threat to biodiversity and human health by engineering plants to accelerate CO2 removal from the atmosphere.
Project Examples:
- Engineer plants to synthesize stable forms of carbon that can be harvested via long term sequestration.
- Engineer plants to enhance CO2 removal by increasing rates of CO2 fixation within the leaf.
Skills:
- Plant Biology
- Molecular Biology
- Biochemistry
- Synthetic Biology
- Data Analysis
