I worked in Prof. Amit Meller's lab to develop plasmonic nanopores to enable high-resolution fluorescence fingerprinting of denatured proteins. This involved design and fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures using HIM, FIB and e-beam, followed by characterization (TEM, fluorescence correlation spectroscopy). Other projects include: microfluidic.

Zürich Area, Switzerland

My work focused on the development of highly sensitive diagnostics based on electrokinetic focusing and separation. I have strong experience in micro-/nanofabrication, fluidics, and mass transport. At IBM Research I was part of the Precision Diagnostics team, under the supervision of Dr. Govind Kaigala. Between April 2015 and October 2016 I worked in the.

Developing microfluidic methods for fast liquid switching and delivery of minimally dispersed liquid interfaces using a microfluidic probe.

Kapeldreef 75, Heverlee, Belgium

Independent cleanroom work and experimental characterization of organic semiconductors. The goal of this project was to reduce the dark current in organic photodiodes by designing and optimizing the material stack. I was responsible for the design, fabrication, and optical characterization of these devices.
