Main Focus
I am a chemist specialized in GCMS analysis. My research is focused on the Mars Organic Molecule Analyzer (MOMA) onboard Rosalind Franklin Rover's mission ExoMars 2028. I am mimicking MOMA analysis in the laboratory environment. Our aim is to improve and understand the optimum parameters to detect traces of life on Mars.
