PhD Overview

My postdoctoral research focuses on the syntheses and characterization of novel metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for biomedical applications, specifically drug delivery systems for cancer therapy. By designing MOFs with tailored properties such as controlled release, and high stability, I aim to address challenges in targeted cancer treatment while minimizing side effects. This work combines cutting-edge materials science with medical innovation, contributing to advancements in precision medicine and improving therapeutic outcomes. Additionally, my research explores environmentally sustainable synthetic routes, ensuring broader applicability and reduced ecological impact.
