Goals

Methods Development

Biocatalytic formation of high-value C–C and C–X bonds and controlling selectivity outcomes currently unobtainable through conventional strategies.

Training for Mastery

Oversee coordinated training activities to ensure C-CES participants acquire diverse knowledge and techniques needed to master and then utilize biocatalysis in synthesis.

Looking Forward

Center development leads to collaborative and convergent approaches to experimental research and student training that combine state-of-the-art biocatalysis strategies with machine learning and retrosynthesis planning.
