Welcome! We are an interdisciplinary research group focused on the development of biopolymers for nanotechnological, biomedical, and environmental applications.
We also work on computational approaches for physical and chemical systems, as well as data-driven methods in chemometrics.
Our laboratory is equipped with modern instrumentation for the synthesis, modification, imaging, and spectroscopic analysis.
