Fermenting dreams in Jiangnan University
Dr.Zhemin Zhou
School of biotechnology, Jiangnan University
Jiangnan University, known as “the pearl of China ’s higher education in light industry”, situated in Wuxi by beautiful Taihu Lake. Fermentation Engineering and Food Science were assessed at an ‘A+’ level in China, and famous in the world. According to ESI, 6 disciplines (agricultural science, engineering, chemistry, biology and biochemistry, material science and clinical medicine) in Jiangnan University fall within the top 1% globally and agricultural science is in 0.4‰. The discipline of Fermentation Engineering belonged School of Biotechnology of Jiangnan University, is the headstream of the fermentation industry, the first undergraduate student, the first master student, and the first doctoral student in fermentation discipline in China come from here. School of Biotechnology of Jiangnan University pushes forward the light industry of China greatly.
I got Ph.D. in the University of Tsukuba in 2003. Today I will introduce you the School of Biotechnology, Jiangnan University, and then show a study report about a protein evolution platform based on CRISPR-Cas system.
