"My research focuses on the development and characterization of biofunctional hybrid polymer systems for regenerative neural interfaces and biosensing applications. My first project investigates the optimization of coaxial electrospinning parameters to fabricate core-shell copolymer fibers for controlled therapeutic delivery. My second project utilizes two-photon polymerization to fabricate microscale conducting polymer devices with tunable architectures. My third project leverages meniscus-guided electrochemical deposition to directly pattern microscale conducting polymer hydrogels onto planar substrates for biosensing applications."
