Emeritus Researcher, NREL
Pin-Ching Maness is a Emeritus Researcher, Principal Scientist and Photobiology Group Manager of NREL’s Biosciences Center. She is currently involved in several DOE funded projects including gaining insight into mechanistic details of redox enzymes, probing design principles for biosystems redesign, and developing microbial platforms to enable solar- or biomass-conversion technologies for the production of biofuels and biochemicals. Her effort in developing the biomass-to-hydrogen technology has been recognized by DOE as a NREL core competency.
