Position title: POSTDOCTORAL SCHOLAR

I engineer E. coli and other non-model microbes to produce oleochemicals and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs – bioplastics).

My research is focused on construction and optimization of microbial platforms for the production of biopolymers and oleochemicals. This involves developing and refining microbial strains, characterizing pathway bottlenecks, and implementing strategies to improve yield and productivity at bench scale fermentation.

In my spare time I like to paint!
