Research

I am a PhD student from the RWTH Aachen University in Germany, and I pursue my research at the Keasling Lab. My work focuses on the development of alternative hosts for polyketide synthases (PKSs) and PKS engineering. Furthermore, I’m interested in the optimization of metabolic fluxes and bioprocesses to improve the economic viability of natural products.
