I am a Senior R&D Scientist and Project Leader specialized in biofilm microbiology, antimicrobial coatings, wound-care materials, biomaterials, antimicrobial peptides, and delivery systems. My work focuses on translating microbiology, surface science, and biomaterials into credible biological evidence for medical materials and product development. I help design and interpret antimicrobial and anti-biofilm testing strategies, including bacterial adhesion, biofilm models, coating validation, cytotoxicity, leaching, accelerated aging, and product-relevant biological performance.
