Perena Gouma

Perena Gouma's research develops chemical gas sensors, primarily using metal-oxide nanomaterials, nanowires, and conducting polymers, for applications such as breath analysis and wearable health monitoring devices. This work targets point-of-care medical diagnostics, including detection of conditions like asthma and COVID-19 through breath and skin gas analysis, as well as environmental sensing tasks like mold and allergen detection. The research combines materials science (synthesis of nanostructured oxides like WO3 and MoO3) with sensor device engineering for practical diagnostic and monitoring tools.

Publication output has been irregular over the last decade, with a notable gap from 2019-2021, a peak of activity in 2022, and only sporadic single publications in subsequent years.
