Dr. Jizhong Zhou is a George Lynn Cross Research Professor in the Department of Microbiology and Plant Biology and Director for the Institute for Environmental Genomics, University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK, Visiting Senior Scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and Adjunct Professor at Tsinghua University, Beijing, China. His expertise is in microbial ecology and genomics with current research focused on: (i) molecular community ecology and metagenomics, particularly in terrestrial soils and groundwater ecosystems important to climate changes, bioenergy and environmental remediation; (ii) experimental evolution and functional genomics of microorganisms important to environment and bioenergy; (iii) pioneering development of high throughput metagenomic technologies, particularly functional gene arrays for biogeochemical, environmental, and ecological applications; and (iv) theoretical ecology, particularly ecological theories and network ecology. He has authored more than 490 publications, with total citations of > 25,000 and H-index of 84, on microbial genomics, genomic technologies, molecular biology, molecular evolution, microbial ecology, bioremediation, bioenergy, global change, bioinformatics, systems biology, and theoretical ecology. He received Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in 2001, R&D 100 Award in 2009, Ernest Orlando Lawrence Award in 2014 – DOE’s highest scientific recognition. He is an Editor for mBio and a former Editor for Applied and Environmental Microbiology. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Microbiology and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
