Matt Copeland, PhD


Matt received his PhD in Biochemistry from the University of Wisconsin-Madison studying the physiology and dynamics of bacterial flagella during swarming motility. He is currently a postdoctoral fellow in Dr. Brian Pfleger's lab working on the development of trans-acting regulatory tools to manipulate gene expression for the fields of synthetic biology and metabolic engineering.


Brian F. Pfleger, PhD


Brian Pfleger is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering of University of Wisconsin Madison. His lab's current interest is using synthetic biology to engineer sustainable chemical processes and to improve human health. He believes synthetic biology is an emerging biotechnology field that combines elements of engineering, mathematics, biochemistry, and biology to synthesize novel systems from characterized biological components. His research lab integrates these scientific disciplines to engineer chemical production platforms in microorganisms. The lab’s work strives to characterize new biological components, synthesize novel activities and novel molecules from cataloged components, and provide tools to analyze biological systems. His long term vision of the chemical industry involves the use of modern biotechnology, and specifically synthetic biology, to engineer systems where the spectrum of fuels, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals we use can be produced from renewable sources such as biomass or CO2.
