Short presentation
I am a PhD student in Biophysics, specializing in the study of biomolecules and small organic molecules under X-ray exposure. My research combines Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations with experimental work using synchrotron radiation. I focus on understanding molecular integrity and exploring how heavy elements can enhance radiotherapy, aiming to improve cancer treatment by better targeting cancer cells and reducing damage to healthy tissues.
