Deepti Tanjore is Director of the Advanced Biofuels and Bioproducts Process Development Unit Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory(ABPDU) and interfaces with several scientists from industry, academia, and start-ups that are each individually trying to resolve scale-up challenges for their synthetic biology–based technologies. Deepti’s interests lie in articulating industry-wide issues and developing technologies that no single company is incentivized to pursue. Her research at ABPDU focuses on modeling the impact of bioprocess conditions on microbial heterogeneity and developing in-line analytical tools for real-time adaptation of process development in bioreactors.
Deepti received her BS in Chemical Engineering from Andhra University and PhD in Biological Engineering from Pennsylvania State University, as well as an MBA from Haas School of Business, University of California – Berkeley.
