通过合成生物学技术、代谢工程手段改造和设计高效细胞工厂（光合细菌、蓝藻等），用于以可再生的生物质为原料生产高附加值药物中间体、香精香料、精细化学品、天然产物等。
By employing synthetic biology and metabolic engineering, our group focuses on engineering and devising efficient microbial cell factory (such as photosynthetic bacteria, cyanobacteria, et.ac) for cost-effective biosynthesis of high-value pharmaceutical intermediates, fragrance and flavors, fine chemicals and natural products from renewable feedstocks.
