Wiktor Kasprzyk

dr inż. Wiktor Kasprzyk is a Lecturer at the Department of Biotechnology and Physical Chemistry (C-5) within the Faculty of Chemical Engineering and Technology, Tadeusz Kościuszko Cracow University of Technology. Holding a PhD in Chemistry (2016) and MSc in Food Technology (2009), he specializes in polymer synthesis, biopolymer applications, and nanomaterial development for biomedical and optoelectronic uses.

Education:

• MSc Eng. Food Technology, Hugo Kołłątaj University of Agriculture in Krakow (2009)
• Dr. Eng. Chemistry, Tadeusz Kościuszko Cracow University of Technology (2016)

His research focuses on citric acid-based polymers for vascular tissue engineering, carbon dots in photonic applications, and fluorescent biosensors for biochemical detection. Recent work explores 3D printing, photoinitiation systems, and degradation mechanisms of antioxidant polymers.

Scientific Experience: Internships at Northwestern University (USA) and University of South Australia (2013-2014), summer/winter schools in Portugal and Estonia. Current projects include synthesis of luminescent molecular sensors (2017–present) and development of organic-inorganic nanomaterials for 2D/3D optoelectronics (2015–2018).
