My current work centres on developing iridium-based photocatalytic probes for proximity labeling — light-activated tools that let researchers map protein interactions and microenvironments inside living cells with high spatial precision.

Add more detail here: a short explanation of uMAP probes, SNAP-tag/HaloTag chemical tools, fluorophore conjugate work with collaborators, and the HDAC11 inhibitor SAR project with cheminformatics pipelines (RDKit/pandas).
