Biography

As a Ph.D. degree holder in nanoscience and nanotechnology and having significant postdoctoral research experience in the latest biosensing technologies at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev and currently at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, I am well-qualified in interdisciplinary research that blends nanotechnology, bioelectronics, molecular communication, and machine learning. My work is concerned with the creation of BioFET-based biosensors and molecular communication systems assisted by VOCs for intra-body biomedical and smart agriculture applications. At the Technion, I have been spearheading miniaturized sensor platforms composed of arrays of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) for the real-time sensing of volatiles emitted by plants, supported by bioinspired molecular communication models. This research brings forward early-warning crop stress sensing systems. I has also begun to create biocompatible and biodegradable conducting polymer-based intra-body molecular communication VOC sensors. This is a first-of-a-kind work with great potential to support the grand vision of the Internet of Bio-Nano Things (IoBNT), can lend valuable insights toward next-generation diagnostics and diagnostic tools for personalized medicine with a clear alignment with SRM AP’s vision of impact-driven and translational research. During my Ph.D., I specialized in nanomaterial synthesis and electrode fabrication for gas sensing, which provided me with a strong foundation in m
