I am a biotechnologist with a major in nanobiotechnology. During my master's degree and after that, I have researched for several years in the fields of cloning and expression of genes, plant tissue culture, and production of secondary metabolites from cell suspension cultures. In the PhD dissertation and 3 postdoctoral programs, I worked on the synthesis and functionalization of different nanoparticles for various applications such as cancer diagnosis and therapy, cellular imaging, drug delivery, biosensors, and removal of environmental pollutants.
