In Hong Kong for SB4.0

PhD student at the Department of Photochemistry & Molecular Science.

Within the greater goal of producing renewable fuels from solar energy, Iā€™m working with the design and implementation of biological tools and systems in the photosynthetic Cyanobacteria. This includes transcriptional and post-transcriptional control, development of standard (BioBrick) plasmids and heterologous expression of hydrogenases (BioModularH2). Additional research interests include RNA-based regulation, GFP in vivo localization and biological model simulations. Developing and advising an iGEM-team (Uppsala-Sweden 2009) have provided me with lots of inspiration, and will hopefully help in advancing the interest in Synthetic biology among the students.
