About the speaker

I am a PhD student in Biochemistry and Biotechnology, learning how to exploit fluorescence and spectroscopic techniques to investigate the photosynthetic properties of poorly characterized organisms. To do so, I also generate and take advantage of photosynthetic mutants to better define the role and regulation of electron flux.
