Biography

I am a scientist with experience in the research areas of Biomedicine, Nanotechnology and Biophysics. I am fascinated by interdisciplinary projects, particularly if they consist in novel therapeutical approaches for complex human disorders where nanotechnology or molecular biology is exploited.
My research interests include Bio-nanotechnology, Biomaterials, Nanomedicine, Translation Medicine and Membrane Biophysics. I have extensive experimental experience in the fabrication and characterization of magnetic nanoparticles and studying the interaction of cells in culture and magnetic nanoparticles (particle degradation, internalization and their ability of changing cell phenotype).
