«To become a researcher is more than just a job. It is a calling.»
«Why Analytical Chemistry and Chemical Sensing? It is fascinating how a chemical sensor is able to convert a chemical property of a sample into something measurable. Then, the interpretation of the outcomes allows to trace certain on-going processes, which is of high relevance in many different areas: water monitoring, clinical diagnosis, sport performance, wellbeing control, food analysis, military activities monitoring, etc.»
«I love doing fundamental science but also being witness of how new concepts can be integrated in on-body-worn and in-situ platforms. The sensor goes to the sample rather than the sample to the sensor, thus going beyond traditional lab-based measurements.»
