Welcome to my homepage. I
am a profesor in the department of Bioengineering and Department of Chemical Engineering along with
being a member of the Institute of Biosciences and Bioengineering at Rice
University. In addition, my research is in the area of metabolic
engineering. My research laboratory is
mainly concerned with the development of new concepts and novel ways of
altering metabolic routes in Escherichia
coli using recombinant DNA technology to improve cellular
activities and achieve more advanced production systems. The main focus is on
the development of a framework for the systematic analysis of the cellular
responses in regulating its metabolic activities upon precise genetic
perturbations. Understanding these responses is critical to design organisms
and processes for efficient and reliable manufacturing of gene products from
recombinant cells. |
