Jens Nielsen

Dr. Jens Nielsen earned his Ph.D. in Biochemical Engineering from the Danish Technical University (DTU) in 1989, and went on to create his own research group and be promoted to full Professor in 1998. In 1995-1996, he was a Fulbright visiting professor at MIT.

Dr. Nielsen established and led the Center for Microbial Biotechnology at DTU.
He was hired as a Professor and Director at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden in 2008. Jens is a member of various academies, including the National Academy of Engineering in the United States and the Royal Swedish Academy of Science. He has received numerous Danish and international prizes, including the Nature Mentor Award.

Sang Yup Lee

Sang Yup Lee

Dr. Sang Yup Lee is a Distinguished Professor at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology's Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (KAIST). He is the Director of the Center for Systems and Synthetic Biotechnology, the BioProcess Engineering Research Center, and the Bioinformatics Research Center.
He was honoured with the National Order of Merit, the Merck Metabolic Engineering Award, and the Elmer Gaden Award, among others.

Lee is the Editor-in-Chief of the Biotechnology Journal and serves on the editorial boards of a number of other publications. He is a member of the President's Advisory Committee on Science and Technology at the moment (Korea).

With over 40 contributions from expert authors, Emerging Areas in Bioengineering (PDF) provides a broad overview of all important research topics in the topic of bioengineering, including biotransformations, metabolic engineering, and biomedical applications.

Besides several chapters dealing with biotransformations and biocatalysis, a complete section is dedicated to biofuels and the utilization of biomass. Present perspectives on synthetic biology and metabolic engineering approaches are presented, including such example organisms as Escherichia coli and Corynebacterium glutamicum, while a further section includes topics in biomedical engineering including biopharmaceuticals and drug delivery systems.

The ebook concludes with chapters on computer-aided bioprocess engineering and systems biology.

This is a part of the Advanced Biotechnology book series, including all pertinent aspects of the field with every volume prepared by well-known scientists who are experts on the topic in question. Priceless reading for biotechnologists and bioengineers, in addition to those working in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

Advanced Biotechnology Book 7

Biotechnology is a broad, interdisciplinary field of science, linking biological sciences and related engineering disciplines, that is becoming more and more important as it benefits the environment and society as a whole. Current years have seen substantial advances in all areas of biotechnology, resulting in the emergence of brand new fields.

To show this progress, Jens Nielsen (Chalmers University, Sweden), Sang-Yup Lee (KAIST, South Korea), and Gregory Stephanopoulos (MIT, USA) have joined forces as the editors of a new Wiley-VCH book series. Advanced Biotechnology will include all pertinent aspects of the field and every volume will be prepared by eminent scientists who are experts on the topic in question.
