Research Focus

Core themes that define the scientific direction of my current and developing work.

Enzyme Thermostability

Investigating strategies to enhance enzyme stability under elevated temperatures in order to improve robustness, operational lifespan, and industrial relevance.

Protein Engineering

Designing and refining enzymes through domain fusion, structural modification, and function-oriented optimization approaches.

Industrial Biocatalysis

Exploring enzyme systems with practical value for scalable, efficient, and environmentally aligned biotechnological applications.

Current Work

Present experimental direction and technical emphasis.

My current work is centered on improving the thermostability of lipase enzymes through protein engineering strategies that combine rational thinking with experimental validation. The broader aim is to develop enzyme systems capable of stronger performance under demanding conditions relevant to biotechnology and applied research.

This includes cloning, recombinant expression, purification, and functional evaluation of target enzymes, alongside comparative analysis of how structural modifications may influence stability, activity, and overall usability.
