Bang Du

Dr Bang Du is a postdoc Research Fellow on Bioinformatics and AD microbiome modelling at University of Surrey. He completed his PhD at the University of Galway, Ireland, in March 2024. He has published 12 peer-reviewed journal papers, such as Water Research. He has participated in projects funded by UKRI-Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, Science Foundation Ireland, Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland, and the National Natural Science Foundation of China. His research focuses on valorisation and energy recovery from anaerobic waste and wastewater treatment, particularly in:

1) applying ecological theory in microbial enrichment and metabolic pathway regulation with engineering approaches, and 

2) integrating thermodynamic-kinetic-microbiome models to reveal the dynamics of microorganisms, substrates, energy, and electrons in biological treatment.
