Background

Hasandara Sudangama is a PhD student at the 成人直播 Defence and Security at Shrivenham Campus. She graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree from The University鈥痮f鈥疭ri Jayewardenepura, Sri Lanka. She received her Master of Research degree (MRes) from Nottingham Trent University with a thesis in organic chemistry, involving design and modification of peptides towards potential antimicrobial activity. Hasandara is currently working towards a PhD with focus on advanced chemical sensors for bio-detection through utilisation of CRIM-TRACK based technologies. Her undergraduate studies have included a wide background of biological studies, environmental science, chemistry, and much more. She then completed a master's by research on, "A New Synthetic Route to Peptide-Conjugated Photo switches via ESF", where peptides were modified successfully by the Mizoroki-Heck reaction with ESF (Ethenesulfonyl fluoride), and a novel synthetic route was developed to precisely insert azobenzene photo switches into peptides via ESF. 鈥婤eyond her technical expertise, Hasandara is inspired by curiosity, creativity, and a strong desire to develop innovative solutions to pressing global challenges. She approaches her research with dedication and enthusiasm, demonstrating a commitment to excellence and a deep appreciation for the meaningful impact that scientific discovery can have on society and the wider world.

Research opportunities

Hasandara鈥檚 research interests centre on innovative approaches to biological detection, with a particular focus on colour-based sensing technologies. Her current PhD project involves the development of a bioaerosol detection system using advanced colorimetric techniques. This work includes the design and fabrication of a highly sensitive colorimetric sensor capable of monitoring chromic dyes that change colour upon interaction with airborne biological particles. Through this research, she aims to contribute to the creation of rapid, reliable, and cost-effective detection systems with applications in environmental monitoring, public health, and defence.

Current activities

My PhD focuses on developing a bioaerosol detection system using advanced colorimetric technology. My research involves the design and manufacturing of a next-generation colorimetric sensors capable of undergo distinct and measurable colour changes when exposed to airborne biological particles. This work includes exploring dye-particle interactions, enhancing sensor sensitivity and selectivity, and integrating the sensor into a system suitable for real-time monitoring. In addition, I investigate factors that influence sensor performance, evaluate prototype behaviour under controlled aerosol conditions, and work towards creating a compact, reliable platform that can support applications in public health surveillance, environmental monitoring, and defence. Through this research, I aim to contribute to the development of rapid, low-cost, and user-friendly bio-detection technologies.
