Engineering gene circuits (logic gates) in microbes for bioelectricity generation in microbial fuel cells.

Engineering gene circuits (logic gates) in microbes for bioelectricity generation in microbial fuel cells.

Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a promising green and sustainable technology for production of clean energy from organic wastes. However the most significant bottleneck for the industrial application of MFC is its low electricity output by microbes. This project aims to genetically engineer Shewanella...
