Explore Electrochemistry: Where Cutting-Edge Science Meets Everyday Innovation

As a well-practised Lead Assay Development Scientist with a PhD in Chemistry (Electroanalytical, if we’re being specific), I’ve spent my fair share of time either myself or leading a team to tinkering with electrochemical biosensors. My speciality lies in aptamer-based technologies and electrochemical sensors, particularly those nifty point-of-care (POC) devices.

I’ve had the privilege of leading some brilliant teams and seeing a few successful projects through to completion. Along the way, I’ve picked up a thing or two about analytical algorithms, analog circuit design, and fabrication techniques. I’m genuinely committed to innovation and excellence in scientific research, continually striving to push the boundaries of what’s possible.
