... Dr. Walker's research interests can be grouped into four categories: single-molecule detection and analysis to elucidate hydrolytic and synergistic mechanisms of cellulases acting on microcrystalline cellulose; modeling, analysis, and optimization of solid-state fermentation processes for the production of natural products; modeling and optimization of submerged fermentation processes for the production of enzymes and other products; and single-molecule detection and nanofabricated devices for use in molecular ecology studies of microbial communities in high-solids degra
