About me

Iana Lychko's main research interests are in the fields of Protein Engineering and Biomaterials. Currently, she is developing a new class of protein-based biomaterials for gas-sensing to control fish freshness. This work is within the Sea2See project which aims to explore the potential of cephalopode specific proteins called reflectins and their derivatives to form stimuli-responsive biomaterial.
