At PhotoSynLab we have activities within the fields of photosynthesis, synthetic biology and biophysics. My main personal focus is within transcriptional and translational regulation, biological tools development, biophysics, and synthetic biology. In our lab we are working with various  microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas putida KT2440, psychrophilic Pseudomonas, Psychrobacter spp., Corynebacterium glutamicum, Streptomyces albus, S. coelicolor, S. lividans, Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Thermus thermophilus.

I am interested in activities within:

• in vitro transcription;
• microfluidics;
• protein expression;
• synthetic promoter design (across bacterial and eukaryotic domains of life).

We have both national and international projects, and currently the lab is consisting of 13 people: two PIs, six PhD candidates, one post-doc, one researcher and three Master’s students.
