Jinbei Li - Founder, CEO & CSO of ENZIDIA
This is the most succinct and comprehensive formulation I've drawn for ENZIDIA's vision of humanity's sustainable future.
The goal: bypass fossil fuels to make what we need, so that we stop releasing ancient carbon to today's atmosphere.
Notes:
1) Why solar is the ultimate energy source, ideally solar of today.
2) How enzymes enabled the entire organic world (including fossil fuels).
3) Why enzymes are essential for conversions going up in the molecular energy ladder, namely when we bypass fossil fuels.
4) We need accelerated enzymes to make processes of the future efficient.
Jinbei leads ENZIDIA's strategic direction and research platform. His background spans protein engineering, high-throughput biology, and computational modelling. Before founding ENZIDIA, he held research positions in synthetic biology and contributed to enzyme characterisation work in academic and industrial settings.
