SMART Lab: We are leveraging the power of synthetic biology and protein engineering to produce Engineered Living Materials (ELMs). We engineer the living cells as biofactories producing the molecular building blocks of ELMs, a platform conferring features such as: autonomous, self-assembling, self-maintaining, adaptability and evolvability
