Amity Institute of Biotechnology, Amity University Gurgaon Organized Guest lecture on Design and Construction of Synthetic Circuits in Escherichia coli on 16th September by Dr. Vijai Singh, Institute of Systems & Synthetic Biology, France.
Dr. Vijai Singh is currently working as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Institute of Systems & Synthetic Biology, Genopole, CNRS, UEVE, Université Paris-Saclay, France. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in 2000 from V.B.S. Purvanchal University, Jaunpur, India. He received his master degree in Biotechnology in 2002 f rom the Department of Biotechnology, V.B.S. Purvanchal University, Jaunpur, India. He obtained his Ph.D. in Biotec hnology (2009) from Uttar Pradesh Technical University, Lucknow, India. During his Ph.D., he has developed a molecular and immunoassays for rapid and sensitive diagnostic of Aeromo nas hydrophila. He has been working in Synthe tic Biology and Metabolic Engineering since 2009 in different countries. He has joined ISSB in 2009 and worked on design and characterization of synthetic oscillatory circuits and related gene circuits.
Dr. Vijai Singh of the Institute of Systems & Synthetic Biology, Genopole, CNRS, UEVE, Université Paris-Saclay, France visited AUH as an invited speaker. He gave a presentation on his work titled ‘Design and Construction of Synthetic Circuits in Escherichia coli’. He discussed the possibilities on using E. coli for the production of various important products like biofuel, saffron etc using synthetic biology. He also discussed his work on the utilization of CRISPR/Cas in synthetic biology.
Dr. Singh has published 60 research articles, 3 books, 9 book chapters with 440 Google citations and 12 H-Index. He has also submitted more than 100 genes sequences in NCBI GenBank. He serves as a member of editorial board and reviewer of a number of peer-reviewed journals.
