Ysgol y Biowyddorau
Trosolwyg
Rwy'n ficrobiolegydd sydd â diddordeb mewn ffyrdd arloesol o ganfod a thrin afiechydon. Prif ffocws technolegol fy ngwaith yw cymhwyso microdonnau biofeddygol: meysydd electromagnetig a ddefnyddir yn gyffredin ar gyfer cymwysiadau diwydiannol, gwyddonol a biofeddygol. Fy nod yw deall yn well sut mae microdonnau'n rhyngweithio â systemau byw fel y gallwn ddylunio dulliau newydd o fynd i'r afael â materion iechyd cyhoeddus byd-eang, megis ymwrthedd gwrthficrobaidd. Mae fy nhîm wedi'i leoli yn y grŵp Microbiomau, Microbau a Gwybodeg (MMI) yn Ysgol y Biowyddorau Caerdydd.
Rwy'n cydweithio'n agos ag ymchwilwyr o bob rhan o'r pynciau STEM ac rwy'n angerddol am ymgysylltu â'r cyhoedd. Rwy'n mwynhau cyfathrebu fy ymchwil i gynulleidfaoedd amrywiol, gan gynnwys trwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg, ac yn mynd ati i weithio tuag at ysbrydoli'r genhedlaeth nesaf o ferched a menywod mewn gwyddoniaeth. Rwyf hefyd yn teimlo'n freintiedig o gael y cyfle i addysgu ein myfyrwyr talentog yn Ysgol y Biowyddorau fel rhan o fodiwlau BI1001, BI1003, BI2332 a BI3155.
Fi hefyd yw arweinydd Gyrfaoedd a Chyflogadwyedd Ysgol y Biowyddorau, gan roi gwybod i fyfyrwyr Biowyddoniaeth am gyfleoedd cyflogaeth a gyrfa a chwrdd â chynrychiolwyr y diwydiant i nodi sut y gall Biowyddorau ymgorffori elfennau galwedigaethol i gryfhau cyrsiau israddedig a chynyddu cyflogadwyedd myfyrwyr.
Mae gen i ddiddordeb bob amser mewn clywed gan gydweithwyr neu fyfyrwyr posibl a hoffai weithio fel rhan o fy ngrŵp ymchwil. Am fwy o wybodaeth, cysylltwch â ni.
