Fast Phylogenetic Mapping of Functional Anchors from the Mining Microbiome

Microorganisms have radically shaped Earth’s atmosphere and landscapes. From providing oxygen in the air we breathe to nitrogen in soils for farming, their innumerable ecosystem services have long gone unappreciated and under utilized. Recent advances in DNA sequencing technology – where the letters of an organism’s DNA are read – and computing have revolutionized our […]

Characterization of ionomer properties of the catalyst layers of polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) Year Two

The state-of-the-art polymer electrolyte fuel cells have catalyst layers (CLs) made of Platinum catalyst on carbon support (Pt/C) bound together by proton-conducting polymer or ionomer. To overcome the challenges of high cost of Platinum catalyst ad corrosion of carbon support, alternative materials for catalyst and catalyst support are being considered. The interaction of ionomer with […]
