Our research group specializes in both scientific and applied research. We are currently developing a state-of-the-art classical-quantum hybrid approach, incorporating quantum information theory, knowledge graphs, and large language models (LLM), to resolve complex pan-omics networks in microbes. Additionally, we are advancing green and smart technologies for anaerobic/micro-aerobic waste treatment and bioenergy harvesting, plastic-to-bioplastic upcycling, toxic gas suppression, and digital twin monitoring. Our select research areas include: Gene regulation mechanisms governing microbial metabolic shifts The role of biomolecular Maxwell’s demon in overcoming rate-limiting microbial metabolisms Electron/oxidative radical-enhanced nutrient cycling and bioenergy production under electrically-conductive and aerobic microenvironments Digital twin platforms for toxic gas monitoring in enclosed spaces Keywords: Environmental microbiology, bioprocesses, waste management, pan-omics, digital twin, quantum model, semantic model, large language model (LLM)
