Olha received her bachelor's and master's degrees in Chemistry from Taras National University of Kyiv. In 2022, Olha had an internship at Saarland University, Germany under the supervision of Professor Dominik Munz. She joined PME at the University of Chicago in March 2023 as a non-degree student and currently works under the supervision of Prof. Chong Liu and Prof. Paul Nealey.
Olha's research focuses on addressing water quality and energy challenges through cutting-edge chip technology. She has fabricated SiNx membranes with isoporous structures, enabling precise ion transport measurement and the deposition of 2D materials. Collaborating with Argonne National Laboratory, Olha has developed liquid cell platforms featuring SiNx membranes with gold nanoparticles for in-situ Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Additionally, her work includes the fabrication of SiNx membranes with chromium gratings tailored for TEM applications.
