Roland Ludwig graduated from BOKU - University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna with a masters degree in biotechnology and completed his doctoral studies under the supervision of Dietmar Haltrich in 2004. He worked as a senior & key researcher for the Austrian Centre of Industrial Biotechnology until 2009, when starting a postdoctoral internship at Lund University with bioelectrochemist Lo Gorton. Since 2011, he is permanently associated with BOKU and works on cofactor-dependent oxidoreductases such as laccases AA1 , GMC-oxidoreductases AA3 and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases AA9. The research focuses on the screening, production, and characterisation of oxidoreductases to understand their physiological roles and their engineering and application in biocatalysis and biosensors [1].
