About

My research is on:

  • Nanofibrous systems that enhance cell proliferation and cell encapsulation

  • Dressings incorporating antimicrobial, anti‑inflammatory, or essential‑oil‑based bioactive agents

  • Stimuli‑responsive fibres designed for controlled drug release

  • Nanocomposites with tunable surface and mechanical properties, to achieve properties such as improved mechanical strength, controlled surface wettability, tailored degradation behaviour.
