Engineering new tools to improve energy metabolism

Investigators: Professor Aleksandra Filipovska, Dr Richard Lee

Project description

This project will focus on using genome engineering technologies to improve energy utilization and production inside the powerhouses of the cell. The project will apply diverse techniques in cell biology (super resolution microscopy, confocal microscopy), genetics, biochemistry, genomics and transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics. There will be a scope to develop bioinformatics skills in omics data analyses and engineering of model organisms.
