PhD student at the Department of Biology and Biological engineering, Chalmers University of Technology.
Background
I hold a MSc in Biotechnology from Lund University, which involved a year at Vienna University of Technology and work on the lactose metabolism in T. reesei [1]. In 2014, I started my PhD studies at Chalmers University of Technology under supervision of Prof. Lisbeth Olsson and Asst. Prof. Johan Larsbrink. I am currently finalising my PhD thesis and will graduate in February 2019. My research concerns the controlled deconstruction of plant biomass [2], in particular glucuronoyl esterases [3, 4] belonging to Carbohydrate Esterase Family 15.
I have been involved in structure-function studies of bacterial CE15 enzymes [4], where my main contribution has been biochemical characterisation of CE15 enzymes on model substrates and native lignin-carbohydrate ester bonds.
