Dr. Elena Poimanova is a chemist currently serving as Senior Researcher at the Laboratory of Molecular Sensor Technologies and Devices of the Enikolopov Institute of Synthetic Polymeric Materials and at the Department of Fundamental Physical and Chemical Engineering of Lomonosov Moscow State University. She is a graduate of Donetsk State University, Ukraine, and earned her PhD on the topic “Polyoxotungstate-anions in aqueous-organic solutions and their salts” at Kuban State University, Russian Federation. She contributed to the recent projects of the Laboratory focused on the functioning of electronic nose systems designed for express diagnostics of tuberculosis via exhaled breath analysis. Her main scientific interests lie in the field of multifunctional-device development, mainly based on electrolyte-gated field-effect transistors (EGOFETs) functioning as liquid hemo- and biosensors. The results include disposable, reusable and multisensory systems able to measure pH, heavy metals, influenza A virus and antibody concentrations. Future research will be focused on mechanisms of EGOFET functioning and surface interactions, with investigations including the expansion of the range of analytes, which is important for point-of-care detection.
