      Working at the intersection of cancer biology and innovative therapies, studying how Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) reshapes the tumor microenvironment. My research focuses on the interaction between cancer cells and immune cells, with the aim of uncovering new treatment strategies for different tumor types. By investigating CAP alone and in combination with clinically relevant substances, I strive to contribute to the development of next-generation cancer therapies.
