Facundo Romani is a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Plant Sciences at the University of Cambridge, focusing on the use of the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha as a model system for evolutionary-developmental studies and synthetic biology. He holds a degree in Biotechnology from the Universidad Nacional de Quilmes, Argentina, and earned his PhD in Plant Sciences from the Universidad Nacional del Litoral, Argentina. In 2021, he commenced his postdoctoral research and became a Leverhulme Early-Career Fellow in 2023. His research interests involve exploring transcription factor evolution, leveraging the simplicity of Marchantia to unlock new experimental approaches in systems biology engineering. He aims to engineer morphogenesis and cell differentiation by manipulating transcription factors and cell-cycle related proteins, while also optimizing cloning and plant transformation methods through high-throughput approaches.
