Dr Fuli Li is now the Microbial Resources group leader at Qingdao institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology , Chinese Academy of Sciences. Dr. LI received his Bachelor's degree from Lanzhou University in July, 1998, and then he moved to Shandong University where he did his Ph.D. work on metabolic pathway of dibenzothiophene desulfurization in Mycobacterium goodii X7B. From Sep. 2005 to Sep. 2007, he worked in Max Planck Institute of Terrestrial Microbiology at Marburg with Professor Thauer, where he and coworkers successfully found that Re-citrate synthase in Clostridium kluyveri is phylogenetically related to homocitrate synthase and isopropylmalate synthase rather than to Si-citrate synthase, and coupled ferredoxin and crotonoyl-CoA reduction are catalyzed by butyryl-CoA dehydrogenase/ETF complex in Clostridium kluyveri. He and his coworkers have published more than 20 peer-reviewed papers, of which 16 are indexed by ISI web of science.

Research staffs

    The Microbial Resources group has 6 research staffs and 8 postgraduate students. The main backgrounds of group members are Microbiology, Biochemistry and Molecular biology. They have experience in the research of microbiology, molecular biology, phycology, metabolic engineering, enzymology, fermentation engineering, and other related fields.
