Research

Using principles inspired by systems theory and computer science, my research program is developing new techniques to (1) design and synthesize robust programmable engineered biochemical circuits, and (2) derive predictive models using omics and imaging datasets. The applications include:

• Diagnostics and treatments in cancers and infectious diseases;
• Software platforms for simulating and analysing complex models of biological systems;
• Biomass maximization; and
• Programmable functional organic material.
