Biography
Bana holds a BPharm with a MSc in Pharmaceutical Technology
and a PGdip in Engineering Quality Improvement. In 2019 she was awarded her PhD
from the University of Bradford for her interdisciplinary work that combines
materials engineering and biomedical sciences to develop injectable smart
hydrogel drug delivery systems. Her
research focuses on formulating sustainable systems and identifying the
structure-property relationships of polymeric soft matter when subjected to
different environments, to predict and tailor real life performances.
Currently, she is a Post-doctoral Research Associate working
at the Institute for Digital and Sustainable Futures with NGOs, academic and industrial
partners to develop accessible, cost-effective microneedle devices for the
delivery of contraceptives in low-income countries.
She has been an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education
Academy since 2016 and was chosen as a Media Fellow British Science Association
in 2019. During her media fellowship she worked as science correspondent and
reported for the Daily Mail and the British Science Association. Bana is
passionate about public engagement and science communication. She is a STEM
ambassador and a contributing member of Café scientifique and Pint of Science
teams.
