I have broad scientific interests in condensed matter physics in the field of light matter interactions, both in the areas of basic and applied science. I am particularly interested in exploring these topics in the fields of materials science, alternative energy sources, and medical technology. The experience as a researcher includes working with steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy techniques, especially time-resolved Photoacoustic Calorimetry, which has giving me experience handling laser equipment, performing daily maintenance or even more specialized interventions. My research activities include Photochemical and Photophysical characterization of organic and inorganic molecules as well as applications and developments in Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) and Photoacoustic technology, e.g. Photoacoustic Tomography (PAT). My experience also includes basic programming experience in C and R and multivariate analysis, such as principal components analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA).
