Research Activities
My research focuses on the development of polymeric bio-compatible conducting materials by combining gelatin with ionic liquids. The current goals are to create a matrix for redox enzyme immobilization with physical and chemical stability when immersed in liquid media. I also aim to create working enzymatic fuel cells based on this technology.
