About

I develop innovative molecular diagnostic technologies that bridge cutting-edge research and real-world healthcare applications. My work integrates scientific research, biosensors, point-of-care technologies and European collaborative R&D to translate scientific advances into impactful diagnostic solutions. At AIT Austrian Institute of Technology, I contribute to and help shape Horizon Europe projects addressing infectious diseases, environmental health and next-generation biosensing platforms. Working at the interface of science, innovation and international collaboration, I support the development of technologies that strengthen healthcare and One Health approaches. My interests include molecular diagnostics, biosensors, point-of-care technologies, HealthTech innovation, EU collaborative R&D, technology transfer and One Health. I enjoy connecting excellent research with practical applications and building international collaborations that turn scientific ideas into real-world impact.
