Freelance Electrochemist with 10+ years experience in academic research

Profile Summary

I have worked in the area of intrinsically conducting polymers (polyaniline and polypyrrole) and I have experimental skills in analytical electrochemistry. My current research is about metal deposition on textile materials using intrinsically conducting polymers as mediators, for EMI shielding applications. I was also involved in teaching courses in electrochemistry and smart textiles to undergraduate and graduate students.
