OpportunityTitle: Biological Systems Research on the Role of Microbial  Communities in Carbon Cycling
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: All types of domestic entities are eligible to  apply, except other Federal  agencies, Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC)  Contractors,  and nonprofit organizations described in section 501(c)(4) of the Internal   Revenue Code of 1986 that engaged in lobbying activities after December  31,  1995.
Description: The Office of Biological and Environmental Research (BER) of the Office of Science (SC), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), hereby announces its interest in receiving applications for research that supports the Genomics:GTL research program (www.genomicsGTL.energy.gov). In this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), applications are solicited for: i.) Systems-level studies on regulatory and metabolic networks of microbes and microbial consortia involved in biogeochemical cycling of carbon, ii.) Development of metatranscriptomic, metaproteomic, and other genome-enabled approaches to understand how shifts in environmental variables impact microbially-mediated carbon cycling processes in terrestrial ecosystems, and iii.) Development of methods and techniques for imaging and analysis of microbially-mediated carbon cycling processes in terrestrial ecosystems.
