About
Dr. Michael P. C. Fibinger is a leading figure in the field of automated biotechnology and protein engineering, with a particular focus on high-throughput enzyme screening and directed evolution. His most impactful contribution is the development of a fully automatized robotic platform for enzyme library screening, detailed in his 2016 paper, which has garnered over 100 citations. This work revolutionized the field by enabling precise monitoring and control of microbial growth conditions in microtiter plates, ensuring consistent enzyme production for reliable interrogation of enzyme variants. By automating the labor-intensive process of screening thousands of mutants, Dr. Fibinger’s platform dramatically accelerates the discovery of optimized biocatalysts for industrial and pharmaceutical applications. His research bridges the gap between robotics, bioinformatics, and molecular biology, providing a scalable solution for protein engineering. This achievement has made him a key innovator in the push toward fully automated laboratories, where high-throughput experimentation can be conducted with minimal human intervention. Dr. Fibinger’s work continues to inspire researchers seeking to integrate automation into their own enzyme discovery pipelines.
