Development of combined mathematical and experimental approaches for the multi-scale analysis of industrial bioprocesses with a focus on recombinant protein production in mammalian cell culture systems and the use of microalgae for the production of biofuels, high-value chemicals and the biodegradation of toxic compounds.

  1. Characterisation and analysis of cell metabolism under industrial bioprocessing conditions
  2. Systems Biology and Metabolic Modelling
  3. Design of Experiments
  4. Development of mathematical models and model analysis techniques (Parameter Estimation, Sensitivity Analysis) to facilitate the model-based design and optimisation of industrial scale bioprocesses
