Research Interests:I'm working in a European consortium called CyanoFactory. The purpose of the project is to improve the cyanobacteria 'Synechocystis PCC6803' as a Synthetic Biology chassis; and to make it industrially viable for production of products such as biofuel. As a proof of principal, the organism is being modified to produce hydrogen gas, please see our website for further details. |
Further information:During my time at the University of Glasgow, I took part in the 2011 iGEM team, which was brilliant fun - if you're thinking about taking part, I strongly recommend it! My favourite thing about Sheffield is probably having the peak district nearby, although I wish it didn't rain quite so much. |
Prizes:2012: Pontecorvo prize and Pontecorvo Essay prize from the University of Glasgow. 2011: Silver medal at the iGEM European Jamboree. |
