Hi Everybody. I'm a postdoc in Katharina Ribbeck's lab. The lab is multidisciplinary and focused on biological hydrogels and in particular mucus and biofilms. My work is focused on the study of cell-mucin interactions, the physicochemical characterization of mucin coatings and the development of mucin-based biomaterials. I have been extracting the essential component of mucus (mucins), and am doing exploratory work to expose the potential of this molecule to be used as a building block for new biomaterials. These biomaterials can be used to better understand mucus (its biophysical properties and its biology) and for biomedical applications such as drug delivery.
