Nadia contributes to the electrochemical sensing activities within the MicroTex project through the development of implantable electrochemical sensors for biomedical applications. Her research combines cleanroom microfabrication with electrochemical characterisation to design, fabricate, and evaluate novel biocompatible electrode systems that support precision drug delivery and localised biological measurement.
.
Nadia is currently in the third year of her PhD at the University of Edinburgh under prof. Andrew Mount’s supervision. Her research focuses on developing and optimising implantable electrochemical sensors. She has experience across the full electrode development process, from photolithography, thin-film deposition, and microfabrication to electrochemical characterisation and performance evaluation, with a particular interest in improving sensitivity, stability, and biocompatibility.
.
Before joining the University of Edinburgh, she completed a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry at Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, Ukraine, where her undergraduate research investigated the application of amorphous alloys for hydrogen evolution.
.
In MicroTex, she works on advancing electrode technologies that integrate microfabrication and electrochemical sensing to enable reliable in vivo monitoring.
Outside the lab, she enjoys hiking, sports, and photography.
