If one (or more) of these areas seem interesting send an email to alexkip@auth.gr
Interested in 3D CAD design (Autodesk Tinkercad), microelectronics (Arduino, Raspberry Pi) and good old fashioned engineering & tinkering?
We are currently developing and/or designing:
- Bubble column (photo-) bioreactors for CO2 sequestration from algae
- Multi-parallel automated scale-down photo-bioreactors
- Solid state bioreactors for fungal cultures
Do you think green (or red, or brown, or pink, or yellow....) photo-synthetic organisms are cool?
We are currently working on a number of algae based projects:
- Algae based bioprocesses without the addition of compressed CO2
- Impact of incident light (wavelength, intensity, photoperiod) on algae metabolism
- Encapsulation of algae cells in hydrogels
- Applications of algae in the food and cosmetics industries
Are you curious to find out where else (apart from Pizza) you can use mushrooms?
We are currently working on a number of fungi based projects:
- Fungi based processing of lignocellulosic biomass
-Valorisation of ground coffee beans
- Solid state fermentation
Do you like mathematical modelling, equations and/or programming?
We are currently developing models and/or algorithms in the following areas:
- Modelling (Flux Balance Analysis) of photosynthetic metabolism in Algae
- Dynamic predictive models of mammalian cell cultures for the production of mAbs
- Process models for rAAV manufacturing
- Stochastic parameter estimation algorithms
