Synthetic Biology and Bioengineering
Our group has burgeoning interests in synthetic biology and bioengineering. These cutting-edge fields offer innovative solutions to pressing environmental challenges. By wielding the new synthetic biology toolkits, we can engineer marine organisms to degrade pollutants, sequester carbon, and restore ecosystems. These interdisciplinary approaches not only deepen our understanding of marine life but also drive practical applications for ocean health. Embracing these technologies is a long-term goal positioning our lab at the forefront of applied science, fostering a sustainable future for our oceans.
