The Roberts group, headed by [[User:Susan C. Roberts|Susan C. Roberts]], focuses on cellular and metabolic engineering in both mammalian and plant cell cultures. In our approach, we exploit metabolic pathways through characterization techniques and redirection of metabolism to optimize cellular processes for a variety of applications. | The Roberts group, headed by [[User:Susan C.
