Dr. Green is Synthetic Biologist with a diverse academic journey. He earned his bachelor's degree in chemistry from Hampton University in 2011. With accolades, including the UNCF Merck Science Fellowship and Ronald McNair Fellowship, he pursued doctoral studies in Bioengineering at the University of California, Riverside. There, he was awarded the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship and focused on engineered nucleic acid-based nanostructures, coupling mechanical features with synthetic transcriptional oscillators. Completing his doctorate in 2017, he joined Caltech as a Post-doctoral Fellow, concentrating on engineering population controllers within synthetic E. coli-based communities. In the Fall of 2021, Dr. Green joined Purdue University's Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering. His research centers on designing and building biological controllers as therapeutic agents for host-microbiome modulation, driven by his passion for addressing chronic inflammation and associated diseases.
