En résumé

With a profile at the interface between chemistry and biotechnology, I am interested in obtaining new enzymes as tools in organic synthesis. With that aim in mind, I have now joined Dr. Seelig's lab at the University of Minnesota, USA, as this team is focused on the evolution of artificial enzymes, thanks to a method that allows the selection of completely de novo biocatalysts.
