We welcome Ilenia Sergi at LEO lab as new research fellow in the framework of project Frulagae. During her Masters Degree in Industrial Biotechnology at UNIMORE, Ilenia worked at IIT in Ferrara, under the direction of Prof. Fabio Biscarini, where she developed

On the 26th of January we welcomed at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia the ICHTHYS project partners for the mid-term meeting. ICHTHYS is a multidisciplinary, cross-sectorial project that aims to optimize novel value-chains for fish and seafood products

We welcome Mattia Bosi and Leonardo Fiesoli that are now research fellows in LEO lab. During his Masters Degree in Industrial Biotechnology at UNIMORE, Mattia worked at LEO in the framework of PRIN project NIFTY, developing organic electronics sensors for the

On 20/10, three LEO master students succesfully discussed their master’s thesis in Industrial Biotechnologies at UNIMORE. Sofia Bigi realized a thesis based on her intership at LEO, where she developed an OECT sensor for food industry in the framework of

We would like to congratulate with Sara Mazzali, who brilliantly obtained her bachelor’s degree in Biotechnologies on 14/10/2022, obtaining the maximum mark. At LEO lab, Sara developed a transistor biosensor based on on single-walled carbon nanotubes, realizing a thesis entitled:

Alzheimer’s Disease is the most common cause of dementia. Its diagnosis uses “biomarkers”, the most specific being the increase in levels of tau phosphorylated (p-tau) in CSF. However, the measurement of p-tau in the blood is not yet standardised and

We welcome Matteo Genitoni and Daniele Piccinini that are now research fellows in LEO lab. During his Masters Degree in Chemistry at UNIMORE, Matteo worked on the improvement of bioactive, biocompatible and antioxidant properties of mesoporous bioactive glasses doped with

Explaining complex discoveries to the general public and students it’s challenging. In a recent interview (link, italian), Prof. Fabio Biscarini explains the importance of telling a story without forgetting that: “…the numbers are the starting point of the narration, the
