He/Him

I am a physicist who specializes in the electrical and electrochemical characterization of conductive solid-state and soft matter materials. I am particularly interested in characterizing the electrical properties of materials made of electroactive microorganisms. Moving forward, I aim to better understand how these materials can be constructed from engineered microorganisms. Overall, I aim to develop building blocks for the creation of living electronics, a class of materials that combines the tunable electrical properties of solid-state materials with the renewable, flexible, and self-repairing properties of biology.
