Research Highlights

Low-Cost Cell-Free Biosensors for All
We develop cell-free biosensors that use genetic circuits to create low-cost diagnostic tools for on-site biomarker detection in resource-limited settings

“Zombie” Metabolism in Cell-Free Systems
We study the dynamics of cell-free metabolic networks to optimize for synthetic biology applications

Modeling for Cell-Free Systems
We develop computational models of cell-free systems to explore their mechanisms and explain phenotypic observations
