Synthesis and characterization of stimuli-responsive polymers

I am interested in stimuli-responsive polymer synthesis using automatic flow chemistry to design functional soft materials.

My research interests primarily involve biologically active natural products for biomedical and biotechnological applications. I am currently focused on understanding their interactions with metabolism.

Bio-inspired polymers for use in nanotechnologies and applied materials science.

Modeling molecules, larger, faster, better.

As part of the BioPACIFIC MIP, I am developing designer peptide-based assemblies that are optimized for 3D and 4D printing of smart multifunctional biomaterials for tissue engineering applications.

Developing mechanically tunable microscale hydrogel sensors using microfluidic and photopatterning techniques.
