Biography
My research interests include the metabolism and molecular engineering of marine eukaryotic phytoplankton, including diatoms. My work at UTS C3 involves using experimental and computational approaches to investigate the metabolic potential of various microalgal strains, as well as to develop new genetic tools and strategies to produce high-value and renewable bioproducts in microalgae.
