Building self-driving laboratories.
I am a chemist, researcher, and team leader working on autonomous experimentation, scientific AI, and robotic chemistry. I connect molecular science with instrumentation, software, and decision-making systems that make experimental work more programmable and measurable.

My work spans molecular complexity, spectroscopy, hardware prototyping, and closed-loop experimental design. I did my MSc at the University of Chemistry and Technology in Prague and my DPhil (PhD) at the University of Oxford. I then worked as a postdoctoral researcher at ETH Zurich before moving to Glasgow.
