My expertise is focused on the synthesis of metallic nano-particles and development of nano-particles functionalized monolithic stationary phases for surface area enhancement. My research activities were aimed at the implementation of such materials in liquid chromatography and flow-through catalysis. I'm currently working within the bioprocessing space and I'm particularly interested in the identification of factors which result in variability within mammalian cell culture systems for monoclonal antibody production, specifically media composition and optimization of bioprocessing parameters through benchtop bioreactors.
