Dai Bio-Environmental Laboratory

Synthetic and Systems Biology Innovation Hub

We have immediate openings for  post-doc in synthetic biology, microbiology, and molecular biology background. Please contact the PI.

Interdisciplinary Platforms for  Biology, Chemistry, and Engineering

​We integrate synthetic biology, material science, chemistry and engineering approaches for sustainable synthesis and bio-remediation.

We apply multiple bio/analytical platforms and data analytics to study and understand environmental chemical impacts on the environments and human population.

We care about our people. We outreach to communities for a sustainable future.
