Professor of Plant Biochemistry and Cell Biology. I have worked in carbohydrate active enzyme discovery, complex glycan analysis, and plant cell wall biosynthesis and structure for two decades.
My research group studies a range of topics related to photosynthesis. These include the biochemical mechanisms underlying photosynthetic electron transfer and its exploitation for renewable energy production.
Research
Biophotovoltaics (use of photosynthetic microorganisms to generate small amounts of electrical power) and electrochemistry as a tool for modulating gene expression.
