Research areas: Fermentation engineering, scale-down bioreactors

My research focuses on investigating stress response in oleaginous yeasts using scale-down bioreactors that mimic industrial stress conditions. The resulting data guide genome-scale models and strain engineering to improve strain robustness and scalability. I also explore different growth conditions, medium and feeding strategies to optimize strain performance in the bench-top bioreactors.

I enjoy jogging and baking (especially stress baking lol) during my free time, and I am a pretty competitive board game player. My favorite punctuation mark is …
