The desire to improve patient lives led her into scientific waters. After graduating from the Faculty of Pharmacy University of Ljubljana (UL), she worked with the Trauma Clinic of University Medical Center Ljubljana, where she developed advanced wound dressings for wound care. During her PhD studies in Biomedicine (at the Faculty of Medicine, UL), she developed two prototype wound dressings containing immediate and long-term pain relief drugs. Afterwards, she was granted a postdoctoral project and expanded her skin pharmacology research with 3D printing technology. Combining the knowledge of skin pharmacology with biomedical engineering is also her future research direction.
