Research projects under the supervision of Dr Mihai Lomora will include topics related to the: fabrication and characterization of (bio)materials-based devices. This will include protein-polymer assemblies (micro-nano -capsules, vesicles, or particles), phytoplankton-based scaffolds, and extracellular matrix (ECM)cellular components for the design of artificial organelles, cell mimics, micromotors, to brain organoids, and organ-on-chip devices.
Mihai is aLecturer in (Bio)material Chemistry at the School of Biological and Chemical Sciences, University of Galway, Ireland. Mihai is also a Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) Funded Investigator (FI) at the SFI Research Centre forMedical Devices (CÚRAM),University of Galway, Ireland. He received his PhD in Chemistry from the University of Basel, Switzerland (2017). Previously, Mihai was a Lecturer in Physical Chemistry at the School of Biological and Chemical Sciences, University of Galway, Ireland. Through CÚRAM, University of Galway, Ireland,Mihai gained extensive experience inmanaging the EPSRC-SFI Joint Centre for Doctoral Training in Engineered Tissues for Discovery, Industry, and Medicine (lifETIME CDT):a target=_blank rel=nofollow href=https:lifetime-cdt.orghttps:lifetime-cdt.org
Mihais research interests include nature-inspired(bio)materials for the design of drug delivery systems and their interaction with (brain) organoids and organ-on-chip devices.
