In this episode, we dive into the world of protein engineering with Dr. Roberto Chica, a leading researcher in computational protein design at the University of Ottawa. Dr. Chica explains how his team uses advanced modeling techniques to redesign enzymes—tailoring them for new functions.

Dr. Chica also shares insights into how these innovations are paving the way for greener, more efficient chemical processes.

Whether you're a scientist, a student, or if you're just curious about how we can "reprogram" nature’s machines, this conversation is packed with fascinating science and real-world impact.
