Summary
👤
SeniorJing Zhang is a Cambridge-based synthetic biologist and entrepreneur with a decade of experience combining wet-lab and computational approaches to design and engineer microbial communities for climate-forward biomanufacturing. As co-founder of Anthology and an Activate fellow, she translates fundamental research on root microbiomes, acetogenic CO2-fixers, nitrogen-fixing microbes, and filamentous-fungi hosts into scalable bioengineering solutions. Her academic training (PhD in Bioinformatics, MS in Microbiology) and prior lab work at MIT, UMass Amherst, and BU underpin a rare fluency across microbial ecology, genetic circuit design, and bioinformatics. Founder of Elefam, she also has broad impact in conservation leadership and public outreach—mentoring 70+ fellows and reaching millions through media—bringing unusual cross-sector experience in science, advocacy, and venture-building.
