I use computational models for the design and the study of (macro) molecular organization (including colloidal self-assembly) and (macro) molecular recognition. Since 2013 I have been coordinating a multidisciplinary research activity for the development of novel binders for medical, pharmaceutical, and biological applications.
By training I am a physical chemist (Laurea in Chimica, 2006, University of Trieste, Italy) and I got my PhD from Warwick University (UK) in 2010 with a thesis in “Computational Techniques for the Study of Molecular Self-Organization”. I then moved back to Italy: I worked in CNR-IOM and SISSA (Trieste), and at the University of Udine. There I met Giacinto Scoles, a physical chemist like me. He introduced me to nanomedicine and personalized medicine: his vision and approach sparked my interest. I had the opportunity to meet colleagues from very diverse backgrounds, and I then spent one year at the University of Nova Gorica (Slovenia) as a Talents3 fellow to learn more details about antibody fragments, especially from a biological perspective, and then back to SISSA (Italy). I finally settled down at the University of Trieste where I am now Assistant Professor of Medicinal Chemistry.
