🎊We are thrilled to announce that Dr. Martin Koller has been appointed as the Section Editor-in-Chief for the 'Biochemical Engineering' section of our journal Bioengineering.

The current Editorial Board of the 'Biochemical Engineering' section can be found at 👉
https://bit.ly/4186h2P

🥼 Dr. Martin Koller was awarded his Ph.D. degree by Graz University of Technology, Austria, for his thesis on polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production from dairy surplus streams. This work was carried out as part of the EU-FP5 financed project, WHEYPOL (“Dairy industry waste as source for sustainable polymeric material production”), and was supervised by Gerhart Braunegg, one of the most eminent PHA pioneers. As a senior researcher, he worked on biomediated PHA production, encompassing the development of continuous and discontinuous fermentation processes and novel downstream processing techniques for sustainable PHA recovery. His research focused on cost-efficient PHA production from surplus materials using bacteria and haloarchaea and, to a minor extent, on the development of PHA for biomedical use.

🎉Dr. Koller led a successful series of Special Issues on "Advances in the Production of Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA)" which is now in its fourth edition:
https://bit.ly/3Z9v6Jj

🔬He currently holds more than 90 Web of Science listed articles in high-ranked scientific journals (h-index 40), has authored more than 20 chapters in scientific books, edited eight scientific books and seven journal Special Issues on PHA, delivered plenty of invited and plenary lectures at scientific conferences, and continues to support the editorial teams of several distinguished journals. One of his publications in our journal "A New Wave of Industrialization of PHA Biopolyesters" has garnered significant attention and received numerous citations: https://bit.ly/4951KQP

👏 Dr. Koller brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this role, and we are excited to see the innovative contributions he will bring to the field!

🌟 We are excited to share the Editor’s Choice Paper entitled "Natural Killer Cell Mechanosensing in Solid Tumors"

🥼 This paper is authored by Suzanne Lightsey and Blanka Sharma

💡 Natural killer (NK) cells, which are an exciting alternative cell source for cancer immunotherapies, must sense and respond to their physical environment to traffic to and eliminate cancer cells. Understanding the mechanisms by which NK cells interpret their environment presents potential targets to enhance NK cell immunotherapies for the treatment of solid tumors.
