Jing Cui Awarded EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellowship
4 March 2022
Congratulations to Dr Jing Cui who has been awarded an EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellowship titled "Engineering photosynthetic cells for low-cost, light-driven synthesis of an antimalarial drug"
Jing鈥檚 research aims to demonstrate the potential of fast-growing photosynthetic bacteria as genetically programmable cell platforms for sustainable, low-cost production of drug compounds currently derived from medicinal plants.
鈥淚t鈥檚 an honour to have been given this opportunity to explore really quite a novel application of photosynthetic hosts for medicinal product expression and contribute to the ongoing research targeting sustainable manufacturing within 香港六合彩中特网 Biochemical Engineering.鈥 Jing Cui, March 2022
