Conducting novel research into Cyanobacteria and industrially relevant microbes.
Cyanobacteria are responsible for approximately 25% of global primary production.
Our objectives are to:
Research the environmental impact of Cyanobacteria.
Understand the biochemistry and physiology of Cyanobacteria and other industrially relevant microbes.
Advance the biotechnological applications of Cyanobacteria. and other industrially relevant microbes.
Development of genetic tools for bacteria.
We are based in the school of Biological Sciences at the University of East Anglia, situated in the world leading Norwich Research Park.
Led by Dr David Lea-Smith, our work looks to make a serious impact on Cyanobacterial research.
Meet our team.
We are a relatively new but growing team, full of enthusiasm and a drive to expand the worlds horizons.
