About
I am a highly motivated researcher with a PhD in Drug Discovery and Development and a strong interdisciplinary background in phytochemistry, food science, and metabolomics. My research focuses on the sustainable valorisation of agro-food by-products to recover high-value bioactive compounds and their application in food systems
