Welcome to the Hodge research group webpage.  Our research is focused on many of the aspects of the conversion of plant biomass (lignocellulose) to fuels and chemicals.  This research works to better understand bioconversion processes at both the fundamental and applied levels to enable the successful deployment of biofuels technologies and simultaneously works toward the goals of energy independence, developing rural economies, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.  Research areas include enzyme and microbial catalysis, transcriptome and proteome profiling, chemical pretreatments, process integration, and modeling, optimization, and control of biotechnological processes.    Together these allow the exploration of many of the most significant challenges and rising opportunities in the growing bioeconomy.
