WELCOME!

We uncover new biology and chemistry by elucidating the biosynthesis and metabolism of small molecules (e.g., natural products, pharmaceuticals) and macromolecules (e.g., protein-based nanomachines).

​

The knowledge help us to develop biological platforms that enable the rapid and eco-friendly production of these molecules for health and environmental applications.

​

To advance our research, we use principles in microbiology, molecular biology, biochemistry, analytical chemistry, protein engineering, metabolic engineering, as well as emerging tools in chemical biology and synthetic biology.

​

We are currently accepting graduate students, undergraduate students, postdocs, and technicians applications. If you are interested, please send your CV to xjzhu@tamu.edu.
