Joanna Sadler is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Edinburgh, specializing in the field of organic chemistry with a focus on biocatalysis. Her research centers around sustainable chemical synthesis and the valorisation of plastic waste into high-value small molecules. Through her work, she aims to develop methods for plastic up-cycling and biocompatible degradation technologies, addressing the ongoing plastic pollution crisis. With a strong background in synthetic biology, Joanna integrates methodologies from synthetic chemistry to create industrially relevant solutions for plastic waste management. Her previous roles include serving as a Chancellor's Fellow and BBSRC Discovery Fellow at the University of Edinburgh, where she advanced her research in microbial pathway engineering and directed evolution. Joanna holds a D.Phil. in Organic Chemistry from the University of Strathclyde, where she collaborated with GlaxoSmithKline, and an MSci in Chemistry from the University of Bristol. Her past research includes directed evolution of novel biocatalysts and the application of ultra-high throughput screening for enzyme libraries. Joanna continues to contribute to the academic community through her ongoing research and publications.
