SERS · Raman · Chemometrics consulting
Validated answers,
not instruments.
Independent consulting in SERS and Raman method development and validation, chemometrics, and EU project preparation. The bottleneck in Raman work is rarely the instrument — it is method design and correct, leakage-free data treatment. That judgement is what I sell.

Who this is for
Three kinds of buyer, one problem to de-risk.
Regulated QC / PAT
For pharma & biotech QC leads
You need to de-risk a SERS or Raman method and its chemometric model for a regulated, audit-relevant environment.
→ Request a scoping call about a specific method
Deep-tech founder / CSO
For nanomaterials & diagnostics startups
You want a senior scientific ally for method development, advisory, and grant firepower — independent and credible.
→ Request an advisory or grant-support conversation
Investor / corp-dev
For VCs & corporate development
You need fast, independent technical due diligence on a spectroscopy, nano, or diagnostics deal — discreet and senior.
→ Request a due-diligence discussion
What I do
Productised, fixed-scope engagements.
Defined deliverables, price anchors, no open-ended retainers by default. Due diligence and bespoke work are scoped on request.
- from €8,000
Feasibility / scoping study
Establish whether a SERS or Raman approach can meet the requirement — before the budget is committed.
- from €25,000
Full method development & validation
A defensible analytical procedure, designed and validated for its intended purpose.
- from €12,000
Chemometric / ML pipeline development & validation
Models that survive an external test set, not just a favourable split.
- from €6,000 per proposal, or €1,100 / day
EU grant & project preparation
Project preparation and proposal firepower from a repeat principal investigator — Horizon Europe and national schemes.
- from €1,100 / day
Advisory / scientific direction
A senior scientific ally on call, at the level of decision you actually need.
- on request
Technical due diligence
Fast, independent scientific assessment of a spectroscopy, nano, or diagnostics deal.
Independence
Hardware-agnostic and without vendor allegiance. The practice is provided privately and independently — the assessment answers to the science and to you, not to an instrument maker or an institution.
Have a method or model that has to hold up?
Tell me the analyte, the matrix, and the decision it feeds. I will tell you whether — and how — SERS or Raman gets you there.
