  For ethanol to be produced from plant stalks, complex cellulose molecules must be broken down into simple sugars, said Timothy Donohue, a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison who works as scientific director for the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center.
  
  The technology doesn't yet exist to do that.
  
  "This is not your favorite TV show where you give me a sample, and I tell you who the murderer is," said Donohue.

  The dinner speaker on April 16 is Dr. Timothy Donohue, principal investigator and scientific director for the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center.The center is one of three federally funded centers announced in 2007 by the U.S. Department of Energy; it will focus on ramping up production of cellulosic ethanol and other biofuels.Donohue is also director of the Wisconsin Bioenergy Initiative.Other speakers will be announced in coming weeks.

  Tim Donohue, principal investigator for the grant and a professor of bacteriology at UW-Madison, said the nation will need to convert about one billion tons of cellulosic biomass into ethanol per year to meet the goal of producing gas with 30 percent ethanol content, and much of the raw material is located in the eight-state Great Lakes region.
  
  The raw material, combined with Wisconsin industry strengths such as small-engine manufacturing, create synergies for the research center.
  
  "The raw material is here," said Donohue, who also serves as director of the Wisconsin Bioenergy Initiative.

  "This is an investment that allows us to jump-start the work of the center," says Timothy Donohue, scientific director of the DOE GLBRC and a professor of bacteriology at UW-Madison.
  ...
  Sitting squarely in the middle of the nation's agricultural belt, the Midwest is a "perfect place to conduct such research," notes Donohue.

  Tim Donohue Tim Donohue is a Professor of Bacteriology, who has been a faculty member at UW-Madison for over 20 years. During this time his research program has focused on solar energy utilization by photosynthetic bacteria, studying the process and control of photosynthesis and how cells divert the energy captured from sunlight into different pathways. He has been a member of various federal research panels, has served on several editorial boards and advisory committees in microbiology, and helped author reports for the Department of Energy of solar energy generation and the conversion of plant biomass into biofuels. He has experience in leading cross-disciplinary research programs like the NIGMS Biotechnology Training Program.
  
  In 2007, Dr. Donohue was named head of the Wisconsin Bioenergy Initiative and the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center (GLBRC), a new 25M/year DOE-funded research center.

  BTP is the largest program of its kind in the nation, says director and UW-Madison bacteriology Professor Timothy Donohue.
  ...
  In an era when academics struggle to secure funding for research, the importance of training grants is even more pronounced, says Donohue.
  
  Fortunately, these valuable programs continue to receive support.Recently, the National Library of Medicine awarded the University of Wisconsin-Madison a $5 million grant to extend the CIBM training program for five years.BTP's grant money will be up for renewal in May of 2008, says Donohue.
  
  "Our biggest challenge," he says, "is to figure out how to maintain the quality and size of these programs in what are very tight financial times, both at the federal and campus level.
