Sustainable Alternatives to Petrochemistry
Our tools enable the engineering of synthetic microbes for sustainable chemical production. For more information, see our research areas below.
Research Areas
Biocatalysis
We engineer enzymes to equip microbes with new-to-nature biocatalytic capabilities.
Biosensors
We build protein- and RNA-based tools to sense biotechnologically relevant chemicals and other stimuli.
Gene Control
We construct genetic parts and in silico models for precise and predictable gene-expression control.
HTP Technology
We develop experimental technology for the characterization of extremely large genetic variant libraries.
Data-driven Modelling
We mine our experimental data with machine learning to enable prediction and design of molecular function.
Bioprocesses
We combine our tools to build strains and processes for chemical and protein production.
