She obtained BSc (1998) and PhD (2006) in physics / nanotechnology from Bucharest University and since 2011 is the head of Laboratory of Nanotechnology.
Her main research activities are in the field of nanobiotechnologies, from study of nanomaterials and nanostructures to their integration in complex NEMS / MEMS devices.

The foreseen applications cover a broad area, including silicon based devices for drug delivery, miniaturized fuel cells, optoelectronic biosensors and lab-on-a chip systems for diagnosis. She coordinated national funded ideas project “Study of membrane - electro-catalyst nanocomposite assemblies on silicon for fuel cell application” (PNII 2007-2010) and also partnership projects as “Integrated system of microreservoirs on silicon for drug delivery” (PNI 2003-2007) and “Miniaturised power source for portable electronics realised by 3D assembling of complex hybrid micro and nanosystems” (PNII 2007-2010). Since 2011 she is the leader of the Romanian team in the FP7-NMP-2010-LARGE-4 Collaborative Project “Development of reference methods for hazard identification, risk assessment and LCA of engineered nanomaterials - NanoValid” (2011-2015).
Now she is involved in a post-doctoral program funded by the EU, with a theme in the domain of Micro-nanosystems for biomedical applications, BIO-MEMS.
Moreover, she is in charge with the Experimental Laboratory of Biohybrid Interface Characterisation – MINAFAB and from 2009 coordinates activities of master course:„Micro and nanotechnologies for medical applications” included in the program of “Electronics and Medical Informatics” specialisation from University „Politehnica” Bucharest. |
