Our research focuses on the design and development of advanced biomaterials, including hydrogels, microgels, and hybrid materials for biotechnology and biomedical applications.

Research Focus

• Hydrogel and microgel engineering
• Alginate-based biomaterials
• Hybrid biomaterials with ZIF systems
• Biomaterials for immobilization and biocatalysis

Overview

We develop functional biomaterials with tailored structural and physicochemical properties for enzyme immobilization, catalysis, and biomedical use. Our work includes alginate hydrogels, dopamine-modified systems, and hybrid materials combining polymer matrices with metal–organic frameworks.

These biomaterials enable improved stability, reusability, and performance of biocatalytic and bioactive systems in complex environments.
