Zsuzsa Baranyai

I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Chemistry in 2009 and my Master’s Degree in Chemistry (Pharmaceutical Chemistry Module) in 2011 at Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, Hungary. I obtained my PhD in Bioorganic Chemistry in 2018 at Eötvös Loránd University in the MTA-ELTE Research Group of Peptide Chemistry under the supervision of Dr. Szilvia Bősze. During my studies, I have broadened my research experience in several foreign institutions (Germany, Czech Republic, Peru, Japan). My PhD work involved the synthesis and biological evaluation of antimycobacterial agents and drug-peptide conjugates for targeted drug delivery. After my PhD I worked on the development of drug-peptide conjugates against glioblastoma in the same group.

I have joined the BioNanoSurf group in July 2019 as a Marie Skłodowska-Curie postdoctoral fellow (MSCA-IF ID: 842652, TBNANO) under the supervision of Dr. Jesús Martínez de la Fuente. The aim of the TBNANO project is the development of targeted intracellular delivery of antitubercular agents by functionalized nanocapsules.
