David B. Levin is a Professor in the Department of Biosystems Engineering at the University of Manitoba. He earned his Bachelor degree in Environmental Studies from the University of Waterloo in 1977, followed by a Master of Science in Entomology from the University of Guelph in 1979, and a Doctorate in Virology from McGill University in 1987. His research focuses on the integration of microbiology, molecular biology, and genome sciences with bioprocess engineering to develop new processes for biofuel production and to lower input costs. Dr. Levin’s expertise includes microbiology, molecular biology, and various aspects of bioprocessing and biomaterials. He studies the development of renewable biodegradable polymers synthesized by bacteria and evaluates their use in applications such as biodegradable food packaging materials. Dr. Levin's work also involves investigating microbial enzymatic degradation of synthetic polyesters derived from petroleum. He has cloned and characterized enzymes that degrade bioassimilable synthetic polymers and is currently seeking graduate students to participate in this innovative research.
