Maja Haczyk – Więcek

My research interests focus on the search for new compounds with high anticancer potential in relation to the cells of different cancer lines cultured in vitro. In these studies I evaluate the cytotoxic, cytostatic, antiproliferative, proapoptotic, prooxidative activity of compounds and their ability to induce autophagy and inhibit cell migration. For this purpose I use traditional, as well as modern devices, i.e. microfluidic systems that I design and manufacture. So far I have participated in two research projects, where my task was to study the anticancer potential of selected quantum dots and gold complexes.
