Optoelectrochemical systems applied to biosensors.
[Open soon]
Work description
Early detection and effective monitoring of cancer biomarkers are essential to improve clinical prognosis, support therapeutic decision-making, and increase patient survival rates. In this context, the development of bimodal systems integrating optical techniques, particularly plasmonics, with electrochemical transduction represents an innovative and highly promising approach for the sensitive detection and quantification of cancer biomarkers. Within this framework, the candidate will have the opportunity to develop and validate an optoelectrochemical system, critically assessing its functionality and versatility for such applications.
