Research interests

Development and use of metabolic engineering tools for the enhancement of the reproducibility of the production of therapeutics (metabolites, proteins, antibodies, DNA et RNA) of high quality, as well as for the characterization and selection of cell lines. Study of metabolic flux regulation by the development of mathematical models that are primarily focusing on cell energetics. Design of cell culture platform for microorganisms, plant and animal cells and tissues as well as microalgae.
