Olga is a Research Fellow in the School of Dentistry, working on developing an in vitro organotypic model of oral mucosa for drug testing.

Qualifications

  • PhD in Dentistry, University of Birmingham, 2024
  • BMedSc (Hons) in Biomedical Materials Science, University of Birmingham, 2019

Biography

In 2019, Olga graduated from the University of Birmingham with a degree in Biomedical Materials Science. Her final year project focused on developing resorbable calcium phosphate cements for bone replacement.

Later that year, she began her PhD within the University of Birmingham as part of the Ultrasurge project. Olga worked on a novel in vitro model of ultrasonic treatment of osteoblasts on titanium surfaces, exploring the effects of therapeutic ultrasound on osteogenic gene expression.

In 2024, she started a postdoctoral position in the 3D Tissue Mimics group. Her research focuses on creating a 3D organotypic model of oral mucosa, aiming to reduce the reliance on animal testing in drug development.
