Biography
My research focuses on structure–property relationships in solid-state organic and organic–inorganic materials, including organic salts, cocrystals, and coordination systems. I study thermal behavior, phase transitions, and polymorphism to understand how crystal structure governs physicochemical, biological, and functional performance, with applications in pharmaceutical, agricultural, antimicrobial, and advanced materials research.
