Ritwika Basu
PhD student
I hold a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Biotechnology, with industrial experience in recombinant protein expression using yeast systems. My project is a collaboration between the Bioengineering Lab at TalTech and the Centre of Food and Fermentation Technologies (TFTAK), focusing on addressing challenges in yeast-based protein expression through the design and application of synthetic biology tools. Additionally, my project emphasises developing automated, high-throughput protein expression workflows to support scalable and efficient biotechnological applications for industry.
