Bioinformatics & Computational Biology
This group builds scalable algorithms and machine‑learning frameworks to analyze genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and single‑cell data. They integrate heterogeneous datasets to construct predictive models of cellular behavior.
Their software pipelines and visualization tools empower collaborators across the institute to extract actionable insights, accelerate discovery, and foster data‑driven decision‑making in biotech research.
Genome Editing & Epigenetics
Focusing on CRISPR/Cas systems and emerging base‑editing platforms, this team refines tools for safely rewriting the genome. They also explore how epigenetic modifications influence gene expression, cell fate, and heritable traits.
Their dual approach promises precision medicines for genetic disorders, strategies to reverse pathogenic epigenetic marks, and advances in regenerative biology.
Algae‑Based Biofuel and Bioproduct Synthesis
This research optimizes algal strain selection and photobioreactor conditions to maximize lipid yields and valuable co‑metabolites. Process engineering focuses on cost‑effective scale‑up, while green extraction techniques recover biofuels and bioplastics. The project addresses both energy security and circular‑economy goals.
Patient‑Derived Organoid Platforms for Personalized Medicine
By growing mini‑organs from patient biopsy samples, we create high‑throughput drug screens tailored to each individual’s tumor or genetic disease. Integrated genomic and pharmacodynamic analyses will pinpoint optimal therapies. This approach seeks to streamline personalized treatment decisions in clinical settings.
