Research Summaries
Tim is an experienced engineer and programmer, turned biologist. He is currently working with GPU-accelerated computer models to integrate cellular growth, biophysics and genetics. Simple microbial systems can be genetically marked or reprogrammed, and followed by high-resolution microscopy to explore and validate cellular models.
Fernan is a molecular geneticist, photographer and award-winning microscopist. He works with microbial and plant systems, and is an expert in high-throughput DNA circuit assembly and cellular imaging.
