ChemoGenetics to Image and Control cells
Dr. Set (Krittapas Jantarug) is a Postdoctoral Researcher at Sorbonne University since 2026. His research focuses on the development and engineering of HaloTag-based biosensors and CATCHFIRE tools, combining protein engineering, directed evolution, and machine-learning approaches to develop innovative tools for sensing and controlling cellular processes.
With a PhD in Chemical Biology from the University of Zurich and EPF Lausanne (Switzerland), and research experience at VISTEC (Thailand), Dr. Set has built strong expertise in protein engineering, chemical biology, and bioimaging, with a particular focus on developing molecular tools to study, sense, and control biological processes and enable new applications in biological systems.
