Research
My research focuses on developing microfluidic (lab-on-a-chip) technologies for use in drug discovery and healthcare applications, with a strong interest in commercialisation and industrial collaborations. I work at the interface of chemistry, biology, and engineering, with projects ranging from droplet-based cell assays to surfactant kinetics, artificial cells, surface chemistry and computational optimization.
