Bioengineering
Research Interests:
We develop data-driven, multiplexed methods to elucidate fundamental principles about how the living world works. We use the knowledge from these insights to develop cell-free biotechnologies for decentralized biomanufacturing, portable diagnostics, and educational kits to serve human needs. A key feature of our work is an emphasis on advancing and applying our capacity to partner with biology to make what is needed, where and when it is needed, on a sustainable and renewable basis. Our work holds promise to transform bioengineering applications in health, manufacturing, sustainability, and education, anywhere on earth and even beyond.
