معرفی
Laura Porcza is a Researcher at Heriot-Watt University within the School of Engineering & Physical Sciences and the Institute of Biological Chemistry, Biophysics and Bioengineering. Her work contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to health innovation and scientific advancement.
Her research spans pancreatic cancer genetics and advanced biomaterials development. She investigates molecular drivers of pancreatic cancer beyond established genetic mutations while pioneering gellan gum-based granular gels for biofabrication applications. This dual focus integrates oncology with material science to address challenges in cancer therapeutics and tissue engineering.
Recent publications demonstrate her interdisciplinary approach: the 2025 pancreatic cancer study analyzes genomic alterations beyond canonical drivers, while the 2024 biofabrication paper establishes novel suspension media for 3D bioprinting. Both works reflect her commitment to translating fundamental research into biomedical solutions through collaborations with oncology and engineering specialists.
