Dr. Andrii Buvailo
Dr. Andrii Buvailo graduated from Taras Shevchenko University of Kyiv (Inorganic/Bioinorganic Chemistry), and obtained Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry in 2011 from the same institution, majoring in the field of adsorption-semiconductor gas sensors under the supervision of Dr. Ludmila Oleksenko and Dr. Nelly Maksimovich. In August 2008 he worked for the Borguet Group during one year as a Research Scholar — performing research on humidity and hydrogen sensors, and biosensors. The research results have been published in several articles, including the following:
Contact Angle Measurements Using a Simplified Experimental Setup
TiO2/LiCl-Based Nanostructured Thin Film for Humidity Sensor Applications
Thin polymer film based rapid surface acoustic wave humidity sensors
Adsorption-semiconductor hydrogen sensors based on nanosized tin dioxide with cobalt oxide additives
After finishing PhD, Andrii left academic research and focused on a career in the tech industry, which led him to several executive roles:
- 2012–2014: General Director at YUNASKO-Ukraine LLC, a hi-tech startup developing world’s most powerful Supercapacitors (Series A venture, 70+ stuff, pilot production).
- 2016–present: Director of Ecommerce at Enamine Ltd, a world’s leading supplier of fine chemicals for the pharmaceutical industry.
Since joining Enamine, Andrii focused heavily on the innovations and technologies in Life Sciences and co-founded his own blog BiopharmaTrend.com in 2016, and later — a consulting company BPT Analytics Ltd, offering consulting services in market research, technology scouting, and content marketing for the clients in the Life Sciences.
