Research interests

Our research sits at the intersection of microbial biotechnology, quantitative synthetic biology and fundamental molecular bioscience. We believe that synthetic biology is enhanced by perspectives from a broad range of disciplines, and that tools required for cellular engineering also have the power to illuminate biology.

Research themes pursued by the lab include:

  • Translation Engineering for Microbial Biotechnology
  • Quantitative Biology of Fluorescence
  • Data, Software and Reproducibility

More detail on each of these research areas, as well as details of our publications, open source software and other activities, can be found on the group website.
