He completed his education at the Medical University of Tehran. Dr. Farokhi's research focuses on the development and application of multifunctional hydrogels made from both natural and synthetic polymers, as well as nanoparticles for drug delivery applicationsPrzemysław Gnatowski works as Assistant Professor in the Division of Environmental Toxicology, Faculty of Health Sciences with the Institute of Maritime and Tropical Medicine, Medical University of Gdańsk. His research focuses on the development of 3D printed polyurethane-based drug delivery systems for usage in otolaryngology. His research also covers the utilization of natural antimicrobial agents for the creation of hydrogel wound dressings which could be applied for hard to heal wounds treatmentDr Justyna Kucińska-Lipka is Professor at the Department of Polymer Technology, Faculty of Chemistry, Gdańsk University of Technology. Her current research focuses on additive technologies applicable in the production of both hybrid systems for releasing low-molecular substances as components of dressing layers and degradable systems, applicable, among others, in otolaryngologyProfessor Tomasz Bączek is the Head of the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry of the Medical University of Gdańsk since 2009. His main research areas are biomedical and pharmaceutical analytics, drug chemistry, bioanalytics and proteomics. He is author or co-author of over 220 original publications in scientific journalsMohammad Reza Saeb is University Professor at the Department of Polymer Technology, Faculty of Chemistry, Gdansk University of Technology. He conceptualizes processing-microstructure-properties-performance interrelationships in polymer blends and nanocomposites. He also visualizes network formation-network degradation correlation in polymer systems by analyzing cure kinetics, thermal degradation kinetics, and flame retardancy.
