Girish Beedessee received his PhD in the Marine Genomics Unit at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology on a JSPS DC1 fellowship, followed by a year of JSPS PDF in the same unit to understand genomic and transcriptomic events in dinoflagellates using different sequencing strategies. He then undertook a three year Herchel Smith fellowship in the Department of Biochemistry at University of Cambridge, where he employed biophysical, biochemical and computational approaches to understand DNA organisation in dinoflagellates.
He is mainly interested in biosynthetic enzymes and their role in secondary metabolite biosynthesis. His research focuses on a larger group of microorganisms (protists) and their role in ecological settings with respect to their adaptation and lifestyles.
