Empowering Sustainable Innovation: CitrusGenetics Research Lab

Welcome to CitrusGenetics, a cooperative plant biotech research lab revolutionizing agriculture, health, energy, and space sectors. Led by Dr. Christos Kotakis, a renowned post-doctoral researcher and entrepreneur, our mission is to tackle worldwide unsolved problems through cutting-edge science and multidisciplinary collaboration.

We aim to:

  • Develop low-cost ecological prototypes addressing HIV, CTV, organic photovoltaics, breast cancer, and the origin and evolution of life.
  • Establish a certified lab with a talented team, driving innovative research and development.
  • Promote biodiversity maintenance and sustainable agro-ecosystems in Greece through genetically hardened organic tree cultivars.

Dr. Kotakis brings:

  • 13 years of post-doctoral research experience in plant RNA biology and bioenergetics.
  • A proven track record of international fellowships, peer-reviewed papers, and invited presentations (NASA, Gordon).
  • A multidisciplinary background, enabling elegant applications of synthetic and systems biology.

Our Platform:

  • 150 acres of organic orchard with 25 diverse cultivars and a 2-acre nursery for genetic breeding.
  • Diversified activities: fruit exports, aromatic olive oil, distilled spirits, natural-based diagnostics, and molecular pharming.

What We Need:

€2,500,000 for:

  • Equipment and installations.
  • Salaries for a 5-person research team.
  • Organic orchard maintenance.

What You Get:

  • Contribution to groundbreaking research with potential Nobel Prize and Copley Medal nominations.
  • Support for sustainable agro-ecosystems and biodiversity maintenance.
  • Opportunities for agrotourism and eco-community development.

Risks & Challenges:

  • Scientific research is inherently challenging and visionary.
  • Mitigating risks through diversified revenue streams (agricultural machinery, etc.).

Get Involved:

  • Share our vision with health professionals, hospitals, farmer cooperatives, and research institutions.
  • Support our mission to tackle worldwide unsolved problems.
