Yvonne Nygård
Yvonne Nygård works as Associate Professor at the Division of Industrial Biotechnology. She also holds a position as Research Professor at VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland. In 2019, Yvonne was awarded the Hasselblad foundation Female Researcher grant and in 2022 the Novo Nordisk foundation Ascending Researcher grant. Yvonne’s main research interest is to develop microbial cell factories for industrial applications, mainly related to production of chemicals and proteins. She has done pioneering work on applying different CRISPR/Cas9 based technologes to industrial yeast and filamentous fungi. Moreover, she has developed biosensors and high throughput technologies for screening yeast and filamentous fungi in industrially relevant conditions. Yvonne is the CSO of a start-up, Cirkulär, that works on developing filamentous fungi for valorization of side-stream biomass.
