Permanent Researcher at Istituto Nanoscienze of Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (NANO-CNR). Research project: identification of targeting peptides for the development of new innovative tools for treatment of different types of diseases.
2017-2019 Postdoc: Center for Nanotechnology Innovation, Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia.
2013-2017 PhD student in Molecular Biophysics, Scuola Normale Superiore (Pisa, Italy).
2010-2013 Master’s degree in Molecular and Industrial Biotechnologies, University of Pisa
2007-2010 Bachelor’s degree in Biological and Molecular Science (Biotechnology), University of Pisa
I am highly experienced biotechnologist in the field of nanoparticles formulation for delivery of different types of molecules. Through my experience, I have gained in-depth competence and widespread experience in formulation of new type of targeted nanoparticles that can be applied to different biological problems. I have also worked on development of new targeting sequences by means of different approaches that can be useful for targeted drug delivery systems.
