I am a Research Technician in the Biotechnologies team, specialising in Biochemistry. My passion for Biochemistry began during my undergraduate degree at the University of Otago, leading me into a Master’s degree with a focus on post-translational modification, specifically ubiquitylation.

I am a Senior Principal Engineer in the Biotechnologies department. My expertise is in the extraction, separation and purification of Natural Products, where I specialise in green and traditional solvent extraction methods, downstream separations, fractionation, purification and process scale-up.

I’m a Team Leader Bioprocessing & Fermentation (acting) working in the Fermentation and Microbiology group. My background is in Biochemistry and I’m skilled in a variety of molecular biology and microbiology techniques, as well as small scale fermentation.

I work with the Lipids and Natural Products research team focusing on lipids and natural products chemistry. My advanced analytical skills support and develop industrial products being commercialised from original research. I work in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy for natural products analysis.

I work as a Principal Fermentation Scientist within the Bioprocessing & Fermentation team. My expertise lies in developing new products and technologies, supporting commercialisation and providing ongoing business support for a wide range of fermented products.

I moved to New Zealand in 1997 to join the Glycobiology and Enzyme Technology Team (GET) at Industrial Research Limited as a postdoctoral researcher.

I work as a Principal Research Scientist specialising in lipid analysis, food authenticity and fraud prevention research within the Biotechnologies research group. In my day-to-day job I focus on supporting multiple clients and partners using my knowledge of lipid chemistry and analytical methods.

I am a Senior Scientist specialising in Bioprocessing and Fermentation where my expertise lies in the culture of fastidious microorganisms and pathogens, cloning and microbiome research.

I work as both a Team Leader, Principal Scientist and NMR Facility Manager within the Lipids and Natural Products Biotechnology team. Renowned as a quantitative NMR spectroscopy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) expert, I have initiated and managed cutting-edge magnetic resonance facilities across both Canada and New Zealand.

I am a Senior Research Scientist with expertise in Mass spectrometry and Biotechnologies. With over 15 years of experience, I have deep skill analysing diverse chemicals, ranging from small synthetic molecules to large natural proteins, using Quadrupole-Time-of-Flight (QTof) instruments equipped with various ion sources (ESI, APCI, APPI).

I am a Principal Research Scientist in the Biotechnologies group where I manage the commercial analytical activities for the Lipids team. During my time at Callaghan Innovation I have established phosphorous-31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy analysis of phospholipids.

I am a Senior Scientist in the Biotechnologies group with a specialisation in Bioprocessing and Fermentation. Prior to joining Callaghan Innovation, I worked in the UK on the development of in vitro diagnostic medical devices.

I am a Senior Fermentation Scientist specialising in Bioprocess and Fermentation in the Biotechnologies group.

I am a Senior Research Scientist specialist working on lipids and natural products within the Biotechnologies team. My work revolves around utilising analytical techniques such as LCMS and SFCMS for the quantification, isolation, and structural elucidation of natural product compounds.

I work as a Principal Project Engineer specialising in Process Engineering within the Biotechnologies team where my focus is on the production of high-value products derived from biological resources.

As a Senior Scientist in the Proteins and Enzymes team, my main focus is the development of extraction and purification strategies and analysis of high value proteins and enzymes.

I am the Group Leader for our Biotechnologies division. My role involves providing senior leadership across our broad and dynamic group, providing services to New Zealand and international companies for the commercialisation of R&D.

I'm a Senior Research Scientist in the Biotechnologies group working in Lipids and Natural Products where I specialise in the analysis and modification of fats and oils, including utilising enzyme technology.

I'm currently the Team Leader and Principal Research Scientist in the Proteins and Enzymes team within the Biotechnologies group. I have deep experience and expertise in the field of biochemistry around biotransformation, protein extraction, glycoenzymes and bioassays.

I'm the Team Leader and Principal Chemical Engineer in the Process Engineering team at Callaghan Innovation. My expertise lies in the field of Biotechnologies, specifically focusing on Industrial processing of natural products, solvent extraction, and supercritical fluid processing.

I graduated from the chemical department of the Far-Eastern State University (Russia), before joining the top Russian lipid research laboratory at the Institute of Marine Biology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Vladivostok.

I am Shuguang Zhang, a Principal Research Scientist specialising in Bioprocessing and Fermentation in the field of Biotechnologies. My training is in microbiology and I work manipulating microorganisms, including bacteria, filamentous fungi, and yeasts, at both molecular and flask/agar plate scales.
