I am currently a doctoral student at the University of Chemical Technology in Prague, immersed in the scientific world at the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry of the Czech Academy of Sciences. Within the Martin Dračínský’s NMR group and under the supervision of Dr. Radek Pohl, I actively contribute to cutting-edge research focusing on the conformational analysis of glycomimetics (drug-like compounds that mimic the structure and function of native carbohydrates) utilizing NMR spectroscopy and molecular modelling.

My academic journey took an exciting turn during a 3-month internship in Jesús Angulo’s group, where I gained valuable practical experience in diverse STD-NMR techniques.

Beyond my scholarly pursuits, I am an avid explorer with a passion for travel, a penchant for trying new culinary delights, and a commitment to an active lifestyle through sports. Nature holds a special place in my heart, providing me with a tranquil retreat from the academic hustle.
