Jaroslav Filip received his MSc degree in environmental engineering at Tomas Bata University (Zlín, Czech Republic) in 2009 with diploma thesis aimed at biodegradation of biopolymer blends. Currently, he is completing his PhD study in biotechnology with a focus on the application of nanomaterials in biofuel cells construction at Slovak Academy of Sciences, Institute of Chemistry (Bratislava, Slovakia). He authored 7 CC publications and 10 conference contributions with 7 citations so far. His current research field covers effective employment of different nanomaterials and biorecognition elements for a construction of biosensors and other biodevices.
