ESR 1 - Ph.D Fellow
Project Description
I am working on switchable glucose biosensors based on redox polymers, shields and multilayer architectures and transient electrochemical measurements. To achieve this, I’m focusing on the synthesis of new redox polymers with specific properties to improve wiring of the enzymes and the stability of biosensors.
Goal at the end of the ITN project
The goal of the project is to develop a pulsed electrochemical measurement regime of a highly stable glucose biosensor consisting of a tailored redox polymer with optimized redox potential and specific properties as well as a biocompatible shield.
My background
B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Chemistry, research experience in organic synthesis, molecular electrochemistry, and organic electrosynthesis.
“Science is magic that works.”
