Mary Dunlop

Mary Dunlop is an Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Boston University with additional appointments in Molecular Biology, Cell Biology & Biochemistry and Bioinformatics. She graduated from Princeton University with a B.S.E. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and a minor in Computer Science.

The Dunlop Lab uses approaches from synthetic biology and systems biology to quantitatively understand and engineer cellular processes. The researchers are especially interested in how microbes use feedback, and also in engineering novel feedback loops. They use both experimental and theoretical approaches to study these complex biological systems.

Research areas: Synthetic biology, deep learning, feedback control, single cell methods, antibiotic resistance, metabolic engineering, optogenetics
