Carlotta Pucci obtained a Ph.D. in Chemical Sciences at the University of Rome “La Sapienza” in 2014. During her Ph.D. she worked on the development of new synthetic catanionic vesicles and their interaction with biomacromolecules, in collaboration with the Institut de Quimica Avançada de Catalunya (Barcelona, Spain). In 2015, she was awarded the IdEX fellowship by the University of Bordeaux to study the out-of-equilibrium self-assembly of polymers and block copolymers at the Centre de Recherche Paul Pascal and at the Laboratoire de Chimie des Polymères Organiques in Bordeaux (France). In 2018, she moved to the Center for Materials Interfaces of the Italian Institute of Technology in Pontedera (Italy), where she worked on projects funded by different agencies (e.g., ERC, AIRC), focusing on the synthesis and characterization of stimuli-responsive nanoparticles for the treatment of tumor or oxidative stress-associated pathologies. In January 2024, she joined the “Regenerative Technologies” Lab to work on the synthesis and characterization of smart stimuli-responsive biomaterials for regenerative medicine.
