Jason Boock

Jason Boock is Assistant Professor of Chemical, Paper, and Biomedical Engineering at Miami University. His research develops bioengineering tools for sustainable biochemical production, focusing on enzyme expression systems, extremophile microbiology, and supercritical CO2 bioprocessing.

Research Focus:
Three domains: 1) Genetic tool development for non-model organisms; 2) Protein expression optimization in bacterial systems; 3) Bioprocessing under supercritical CO2 conditions. Applications include plastic degradation enzymes and high-efficiency biocatalysis.

Laboratory Techniques:
Specializes in promoter engineering, adaptive laboratory evolution, protein characterization, and bioreactor operation. Develops undergraduate research projects connecting fundamental science with process design.
