Dr Aleksandra Nyga received her PhD in Chemical Sciences at the Silesian University of Technology, where she also completed her engineering and master's degree in Chemical Technology. Her research focuses on the study of photoactive compounds for application in antibacterial coatings, as well as the use of photosensitising materials in the synthesis of fine chemicals. Currently, she is the PI of a scientific project funded by the National Science Centre and is also the laureate of the Silesian Science Prize 2021 in the Doctoral Student category.
