Enrique Asin-Garcia

I am an Assistant Professor at the Bioprocess Engineering Group of Wageningen University & Research, where I lead the team of Biomanufacturing and Digital Twins. My work explores what it takes to build living technologies we can trust in and outside the lab: where engineered biology meets complex environments and must act safely, sustainably and meaningfully. Specifically, my research spans real-time biosensors, bioengineering and intelligent biomanufacturing, with a strong focus on Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design biotech solutions. Beyond research, I am deeply engaged in teaching and mentoring, as well as in community building through SynBioNL and iGEM.
