The chemical industry is one of the biggest contributors to climate change, with a two-fold dependence on fossil fuels, both as starting materials and as an energy source for chemical reactions. The Baker group aims to reduce this reliance by developing electrochemical reactions that use renewable building blocks, thus increasing process sustainability and enabling new […]

Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is a globally significant methane sink in the ocean. It is mediated by slow-growing microorganisms that have been challenging to culture in the laboratory. In deep-sea cold seeps, where methane is advected to the seabed, AOM is largely mediated through syntrophic relationships between diverse methane-oxidizing archaea (ANME) and sulfate-reducing bacteria […]
