Daniel Canniffe

Daniel’s research is aimed at improving the efficiency of photosynthesis by enhancing energy capture in underutilised regions of the solar spectrum. He uses molecular/synthetic biology approaches to manipulate pigment biosynthetic pathways for the production of non-native or novel (bacterio)chlorophyll and carotenoid compounds, and to engineer new combinations of these pigments in bacterial protein complexes, with the long-term aim of creating new organisms for harvesting and trapping solar energy.

He received an undergraduate Master's degree in Biochemistry and Genetics from the...Read more

Project 303: Guidelines for Chemical Reactivity Evaluation & Application to Process Design 2nd Ed.

There are many new products and tools since the first edition was published in 1995. This includes predicting hazards using thermodynamic calculations, Chemical Reactivity Worksheet(CRW), CHETAH, CAMEO etc. new calorimetry screening methods are now available. New topics may include safe operating limit and storage condition assessments. Several case studies are now available and will be added. We are looking for R&D professionals, process development & reaction safety experts along with engineers & designers with chemical reactivity expertise.

Project 301: Gamification

This is a regional project being executed in Brazil and rest of the Latin America. The primary product will be in Portuguese and Spanish. We will use the game theory to develop tools for developing skills, drive innovation in Process Safety, motivating people to change behaviors, etc.
