Advancing sustainable solutions through microbial innovation.
The Green Microbiology Lab is dedicated to exploring microbial applications that promote sustainability across various sectors. Our interdisciplinary research combines genetics, biochemistry, structural biology, chemistry, engineering, and computational modeling to develop innovative solutions for global challenges.
Our lab is led by Dr. Adenike Akinsemolu, a pioneer in Green Microbiology and a leading voice in microbial sustainability research. Together with Dr. Helen Onyeaka and a team of experts, we explore the role of microbes in food security, water sustainability, climate change, and renewable energy.
We combine genetics, biochemistry, synthetic biology, computational modeling, and environmental microbiology to develop cutting-edge microbial applications that address global sustainability challenges.
