Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST)

Mohammad Rifqi Ghiffary is a Ph.D. student in Systems Biology and Medicine Laboratory (SBML) at the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) under the supervision of Prof. Hyun Uk Kim. He received his bachelor's degree in Bioengineering in 2015 from Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), Indonesia, and his master's in Biotechnology at Wageningen University and Research (WUR), The Netherlands. During his master's study, he worked on developing genome engineering techniques (CRISPR-Cas systems) as efficient tools for bacterial metabolic engineering, supervised by Spinoza laureate Prof. John van der Oost. Currently, he is working in the heterologous production of secondary metabolites derived from actinomycetes and developing robust molecular tools for bacterial genome editing.
