Prof Eli Keshavarz-Moore
Co-Investigator
Eli Keshavarz-Moore is a Professor of Bioprocess Science and Enterprise at the UCL Department of Biochemical Engineering.
Her research focuses on the interaction between cell engineering, fermentation and downstream processing. As one of the five principal investigators of IMRC for bioprocessing (2007-2012), she brought a new theme based on the specific, knowledge-based design of cells and their propagation in bioreactors in response to the needs and demands of downstream/purification stages.
In further research grants, the challenge of harnessing complex, large plasmids and phages which are potential candidates for a new generation of biopharmaceuticals such as multivalent vaccines and debilitating conditions such as muscular dystrophy has been considered.
