Research Line

My research focuses on the development of advanced drug delivery systems and polymeric biomaterials for biomedical applications. My expertise includes 3D-printed drug delivery systems, molecularly imprinted polymers, hydrogels, and polymeric and hybrid nanocarriers for controlled and targeted drug delivery.
Currently, I am working on electroactive hydrogel-based platforms for controlled drug delivery and tissue regeneration. In particular, my research focuses on electrically responsive biomaterials for controlled insulin delivery and their application in diabetic wound healing.

Group, Project, and Research Lines within IMEM

I am a member of the Innovation in Materials and Molecular Engineering (IMEM) group. Within the group, I am involved in the SCLoW project, focusing on the development of multifunctional biomaterials for regenerative medicine and therapeutic delivery.
