Clara Pérez-Ràfols is visiting the group for the next three months. She is a PhD student in the Electroanalysis group from the University of Barcelona and her thesis focuses on the development of voltammetric electronic tongues for the determination of heavy metal ions. She is also interested in the modification of novel platforms for the devolpment of new electrochemical sensors for metal ions detection.
In the Voelcker lab, we aim to gain a deeper understanding of the interactions between nanostructured materials and human cells and tissues, and their biomolecular products. To that effect, we are developing nanostructured materials and surface chemistries, with a focus on electrochemically etched meso- and macroporous materials. These systems are then optimised for applications in biosensing, drug delivery, regenerative medicine and others.
