Bryan Berger Chemical Engineering Professor, founder of bio fungicide startup Lytos Tech Read Prof. Berger's Story
“Agriculture and food are a major backbone of rural communities and small towns throughout the world, and so we need to provide solutions that are safe and sustainable to help communities thrive based on agriculture and take care of our planet.” The Berger lab uses synthetic biology and protein engineering approaches to develop models of biochemical/biological processes, and uses these models to design new tools and technologies. This work is highly interdisciplinary, involving close collaborations with clinical, government and industrial research groups.
