Biography

Dr. Scott G. Mitchell is a Tenured Senior Scientist at the Aragón Nanoscience and Materials Institute (INMA) in Zaragoza (Spain). At INMA my research group focusses on synthesizing modular and hybrid materials which possess properties that can be fine-tuned and harnessed for a variety of applications in heritage science, biotechnology, and catalysis.

I studied chemistry at the University of Glasgow (Scotland, U.K.), including an Erasmus placement with Prof. Martin Kotora at Charles University (Prague, Czech Republic). I obtained my Ph.D. in chemistry in 2010 from the University of Glasgow under the supervision of Prof. Lee Cronin. The following year, I was honored with a Juan de la Cierva postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Zaragoza (Spain), which allowed me to collaborate with Prof. Jesús Martínez de la Fuente developing unconventional plasmonic gold nanoparticles for photothermal therapy applications. In 2013, I was awarded a Marie Curie Intra European Fellowship, where I studied the synthesis and characterization of polyoxometalate-stabilized nanoparticles. In 2015, I obtained a ComFuturo Project from the Fundación General CSIC and moved to the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). Under the scope of this project, I initiated a new research line in developing antimicrobial molecular-and nano-materials to combat biodeterioration in cultural heritage artefacts. In 2018, I gained the position of Tenured Senior Scientist in CSIC and I carry out my research at the Aragón Nanoscience and Materials Institute (INMA-CSIC/UNIZAR).
