The Pakrasi Lab studies how cyanobacteria use solar energy to drive the chemistry of life.
We work in multiple disciplines and at many scales, studying how the molecular machines that capture solar energy are assembled and maintained, how cyanobacteria respond to changes in their environment at the systems level, and constructing new strains of cyanobacteria that can channel solar energy into biochemicals for human use.
