Bio
I obtained a BSc degree in Biotechnology in 2018 and a MSc degree in Molecular and Medical Biotechnology in 2020 at the University of Verona in Italy. During my master thesis I worked on PLGA nanoparticles for the encapsulation of water soluble and insoluble compounds to obtained theranostic systems.
At the moment I am a PhD student at the Biorobotics Institute of Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna, in the Microscale Robotics Laboratory. My work is mainly focused on the development of a responsive membrane that enables directed movement toward a stimulus.
