Researcher in soft-matter physical chemistry with experience in colloids and interfaces.
My organisation
Our fundamental theoretical and experimental studies are combined with applied research so that the results obtained are used in protection of health, environment and cultural heritage, as well as to improve technological processes. We educate and train doctoral students in theoretical basis and methods of surface studies by engaging them in innovative research projects and making available our unique instrumentation. In the latest research quality evaluation by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, we were granted the highest A+ scientific category.
