Systems Biology Approach to Optimization of Bioremediation and Microbial Fuel Cells and Physiology and Ecology of AnaerobesDr. Lovley's research is focused on the physiology and ecology of novel anaerobic microorganisms. Current topics of investigation include: in situ groundwater bioremediation; microbial fuel cells; directed and natural evolution of anaerobic respiration; anaerobic biofilms; and extracellular electron transfer mechanisms. These studies are being approached at the genome scale and involve genetic, biochemical, ecological, and in silico modeling approaches. Research ranges from basic physiological studies to collaborations with industry to optimize the function of microbial fuel cells. A complete listing of areas of current research can be found on the
Lovley Laboratory web page.
