I joined the Chiappini Lab in June 2020 as a Postdoctoral Research Associate, my work is to develop new approaches to design nanomaterials for topical delivery of biologicals. I did my PhD in Northumbria University (UK) worked on developing elastic instabilities induced super-flexible sensors and advanced 3D morphing transducers. I am particularly focused on developing the control mechanisms of elastic instabilities and manufacturing the micro and nano soft devices, to exploit their applications in sensing and actuation systems. I have published seven first-authored articles of which my work has been featured by media presses in EPSRC, IoM3-Materials Word, Phys.org, NECONNECTED and won an outstanding student paper award at the international flexible electronics technology conference.
