Capabilities

Systems Bioengineering

We’re improving the systems for designing, testing and delivering synthetic biology and engineering products. We’re doing this through linking three disciplines – synthetic biology, systems biology and evolutionary engineering – with traditional metabolic engineering. The aim is to create high-performing cell factories to produce more sustainable products.

Project examples

From gas to green gold

Encouraging microbes to eat greenhouse gases to create a range of innovative products is at the heart of research at the University of Queensland node, which specialises in gas fermentation solutions using one of nature’s tiny allies.
