Current Research

My current work centers on the design of selective and intelligent sensing systems that combine microwave and antenna-based sensing, molecularly imprinted materials, multi-sensor architectures, and data-driven signal processing. I am particularly interested in systems that connect communication, sensing, and machine learning in a unified framework for next-generation wireless and embedded platforms.
