2015-2018

Laboratory of Bioorganic Chemistry and Molecular Imaging, Federal School of Technology, Lausanne, Switzerland (EPFL).

Postdoctoral Researcher

Mentor: Tenure Track Assistant Professor Elena Goun (Dubikovskaya)

Achievements: New bioluminescent probes for monitoring of biological processes in real-time in a living system using biocompatible chemical reactions have been developed. Probes demonstrated excellent selectivity and a high potential for visualization of metabolic uptake of biological molecules (glucose, nicotinamide riboside) and detection of proteolytic activity in pathological conditions both in vitro and in vivo.

Research outputs: This work was presented at several international conferences and published in Nature Methods journal (IF 28.467).

2014–2015

Department of Biochemistry and Molecular and Structural Biology, Jozef Stefan Institute, Ljubljana, Slovenia

Postdoctoral Researcher, Head of the Histology Laboratory

Mentor: Associate Professor Olga Vasiljeva

Achievements:

The study demonstrated that nanoparticle-based systems capable of disturbing extracellular tumor microenvieronment ion balance is a novel class of inorganic materials that exhibit a strong antitumor effect.

Research outputs: this work was published in NanoLetters journal (IF 12.080) and possible application of investigated nanomaterials was covered in the patent application.

2008-2014

Jozef Stefan International Postgraduate School, Ljubljana, Slovenia

PhD student, Research Assistant

Mentor: Associate Professor Olga Vasiljeva

Thesis: Development of a Novel Nano-Carriers for Targeted Drug Delivery and Diagnostics

Achievements: New delivery platforms for targeting the tumor and its microenvironment, based on ferrimagnetic nano-clusters (ferri-liposomes) and lipidated inhibitor of cysteine protease, cathepsin B, (LNC-NS-629), have been developed. Ferri-liposomes and LNC-NS-629 were shown to act as universal drug delivery systems, confirmed by the successful delivery of several chemically different types of cargo (therapeutic and diagnostic) to the tumor site.

Research outputs: This work was presented at several international conferences including two oral presentations at XI International Conference on Nanostructured Materials (Rhodes, Greece) and Gordon Research Conference (Barga, Italy). This work was published in Nature Nanothechnology Journal (IF 33.265), Angewandte Chemie International Edition Journal (IF 11.336). Development and possible applications of the developed targeting systems were covered in two patent applications.

2007-2008

Department of Biochemistry and Molecular and Structural Biology, Jozef Stefan Institute, Ljubljana, Slovenia

Research Associate

Achievements: demonstrated the possible use of Fe3O4 nanoparticles as a MRI visible contrast agents for cancer diagnostics.

Research outputs: this work was presented at an international conference and one review publication.

2001-2007

Department of Human Morphology, Siberian State Medical University, Tomsk, Russia

Master student

Mentor: Professor Irina Sukhodolo

Thesis: An assessment of acute toxicity of Fe3O4 nanoparticles in rats.

Achievements: The possible adverse effects of Fe3O4 nanoparticles were evaluated in acute experiments on rats. The investigated nanoparticels were nontoxic in high doses demonstrating the possible use of them in targeted drug delivery systems.

Research outputs: this work resulted in one publication.
