Division Director, Biosciences Division

2 months ago

Oak Park, Illinois, United States Oak Ridge National Laboratory Full time
Requisition Id 13582

Overview:


The Biological and Environmental Systems Science Directorate (BESSD) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) seeks applicants for the Division Director of the Biosciences Division (BSD).

Reporting to the BESSD Associate Laboratory Director (ALD), the Division Director is responsible for leading and managing the science and technology (S&T) capabilities within the Division, consistent with existing programmatic missions and emerging opportunities, and establishing and implementing strategies for strategic directions in concert with BESSD leadership.


The Biosciences Division at Oak Ridge National Laboratory is focused on advancing science and technology to better understand complex biological systems and their relationship with the environment.

The division has expertise and special facilities in genomics, computational biology, microbiology, microbial ecology, biophysics and structural biology, and plant sciences.

This collective expertise includes collaborations within and outside ORNL and focuses on scientific challenges in biology for Department of Energy (DOE) missions in energy and the environment.


BSD is home to the Center for Bioenergy Innovation, a DOE Bioenergy Research Center focused on developing plants and microbes for a new generation of cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and industrially relevant bioproducts and biofuels.

Research also focuses on Plant-Microbe Interfaces, examining the exchange of energy, information, and materials between plants and microbial communities.

Connecting genes to desired traits is accelerated by capabilities in ORNL's Advanced Plant Phenotyping Laboratory, which offers one of the most diverse suites of imaging capabilities for plant phenotyping worldwide.


Scientists in BSD use high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, and genomic algorithms to uncover networks of genes that contribute to complex traits critical in bioenergy, human health, and other focus areas.

They leverage ORNL's neutron science capabilities to increase understanding of the myriad structures and interactions inside cells.

Researchers are examining the way proteins fold and how the cycling of disordered proteins between various three-dimensional shapes affects how genes are expressed.

Fundamental science discoveries about the human microbiome are helping to inform the development of new diagnostics and new treatments for a range of diseases.


Our researchers enjoy an open, inclusive, and innovative workplace where they collaborate daily to advance renewable energy solutions, biodiversity research, and push the frontiers of systems and synthetic biology.

The future looks equally bright as we understand how genes influence ecosystem-level processes, develop novel biodesign tools and testbeds for enzyme engineering, apply the world's fastest supercomputers to transform biological and environmental data into knowledge, advance signature technologies for dynamic characterization of complex biological and environmental systems, and apply emerging capabilities that promise to transform how science is done through automated, data rich, and interconnected systems.

As a U.S.

Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science national laboratory, ORNL has an extraordinary 80-year history of solving the nation's biggest problems.

We have a dedicated and creative staff of over 7,000 people Our vision for diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) is to cultivate an environment and practices that foster diversity in ideas and in the people across the organization, as well as to ensure ORNL is recognized as a workplace of choice.
