PhD candidate at MERLN Institute working on Tissue Engineering
Biotechnologist with a PhD in Tissue Engineering from the MERLN Institute, working at the interface of biology and engineering. My research focuses on developing microphysiological 3D co-cultures, organoids and organ-on-a-chip systems using microfabrication, hydrogel patterning, and advanced imaging. I developed perfusable microfluidic platforms, including a modular blood–brain barrier chip and an inflammation-on-chip model for endometriosis-related pain, integrating iPSC derived cells into organized architectures. I developed a sacrificial template technology enabling high-resolution hydrogel patterning, leading to IP, funding, and industry collaborations. I enjoy collaborative research, supervising students, and working toward translational, scalable human in vitro models.

This website that you are visiting lives in a server that I have in the living room of my house. Actually, the one of my parents, since is more stable. I can connect to it remotely for maintenance and here I self-host several services for myself. I have backups of my computer, files that are very large, a virtual machine with Linux Mint, a personal VPN with a self-maintained ad-blocker and my portfolio web.
To make this site accessible on the public internet while keeping my NAS safe behind a firewall, I use several open-source tools:
Soon, in progress.
