Olivier Borkowski, PhD

Olivier Borkowski is a molecular physiologist and microbial bioengineer working on model bacteria and yeast. Olivieri's scientific interest, from his PhD to his current work, focuses on the relationship between cell physiology and gene expression. During his PhD, Olivier worked on B. subtilis to understand the impact of growth rate on protein production using a systems-oriented approach. Then, during his postdocs, Olivier focused on the impact on protein production on the growth rate. A method was developed to predict the cost of heterologous protein...Read more

Active-learning cell-free protein production optimization

Archived Webinar
Wednesday, December 16, 2020,
10:00am to 11:00am
EST
Lysate-based cell-free systems have become a major platform to study gene expression, but batch-to- batch variation makes protein production difficult to predict. During this webinar, you will learn...

Anthony Appleton

Anthony earned a BS in Marine Sciences and Chemistry from the University of Miami (FL) and PhD from Georgia Institute of Technology, where his research focused on the design and synthesis of organic electronic materials. During his time at Georgia Tech, Anthony also began working in research safety as the group’s primary Safety Officer after a series of research and non-research safety incidents.
