Research Interests: My research focuses on nuclear waste management, particularly in developing advanced ceramic and glass-based materials for immobilizing radionuclides. I explore their structural flexibility, chemical durability, and thermal stability with an emphasis on enhancing the safety and long-term stability of nuclear wasteforms.
