I focus on the development of polymer brush surfaces with antifouling properties. My research is aimed at studying interactions between biological systems and synthetic surfaces to enhance their selectivity, stability, and functionality. These surfaces enable pathogen detection, for example in food safety control, and are also applicable in the field of biomaterials, such as for surface modification of medical implants.

I am involved in their preparation, molecular-biological measurements, and detailed characterization using methods such as SPR (Surface Plasmon Resonance), QCM (Quartz Crystal Microbalance), microscopy, and infrared spectroscopy. I have experience with in vivo/in vitro testing, working in a microbiological laboratory, and culturing cells and microorganisms under BSL-1 to BSL-2 conditions.
