I am a molecular biologist focused on understanding how engineered nanomaterials interact with photosynthetic organisms at morphological, physiological, and molecular levels. My research combines photosynthesis physiology, oxidative stress biology, proteomics, and advanced microscopy to reveal how silver, copper, and plastic nanoparticles influence cellular function in freshwater algae and plants. I am particularly interested in nanoparticle uptake, ultrastructural changes, redox signaling, and the roles of extracellular polymeric substances. Alongside nanotoxicology, I work on glycan and EPS characterization using high-resolution mass spectrometry, exploring how biomolecular structure shapes stress responses and algal adaptation.
