Dr. Germán E. Gomez completed his Ph.D. in Chemistry at the Universidad Nacional de San Luis, focusing on research topics related to the study of lanthanide metal–organic frameworks with luminescent and catalytic properties. Following his doctoral studies, he undertook several postdoctoral stays in Argentina and other countries to investigate the chemistry of 4f element coordination polymers as solid-state light emitters. Currently, Gomez is a member of CIC-CONICET at INTEQUI, where he conducts research on MOFs for sensing, photoluminescence, and photocatalysis.

Her research area is the design of phases with molecular recognition ability containing metalloporphyrins as an electrochemical/optical reactive group for sensors and biosensors applications.

Dr. Matias Regiart received his Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry in 2016 at the San Luis National University (San Luis, Argentina). He did postdoctoral research in microfluidic device development at Notre Dame University (Indiana, USA) in 2016. Currently, he is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Chemistry of the Sao Paulo University (Sao Paulo, Brazil). Dr. Regiart’s research interest comprises the development of new analytical biosensors for pharmaceutical, biological, and environmental applications.

Dr. Gonzalo Tortella Fuentes is currently working as a researcher at the Center of Environmental Biotechnology, Scientific and Technological Bioresources Nucleus (BIOREN) at Universidad de La Frontera, Temuco, Chile. He obtained his D.Sc. in Natural Resources from the same university. His research line focuses on environmental biotechnology, environmental microbiology, and nanoecotoxicology.

Amedea B Seabra is an associate professor at the Federal University of ABC (UFABC). She has a bachelor’s degree in Chemistry. She has experience in filing patent applications in Brazil and abroad, transferring university/company technology, and cooperating with international universities. She was awarded by the European Society of Biomaterials and was the winner of the Mercosur Prize for Science and Technology, in the Senior Researcher category, from the Ministry of Science, Technology, Innovation, and Communications. She is considered among the top 10,000 most cited researchers in the field of nanomaterials and among the 10,000 scientists with the greatest impact in Latin America. Her current research area is the preparation of nanostructured nitric oxide-releasing nano/biomaterials for agricultural and medical applications.

Galo Juan de Avila Arturo Soler-Illia (Buenos Aires, 1970) obtained his degree and Ph.D. in Chemistry at the INQUIMAE, University of Buenos Aires (UBA), followed by postdoctoral work at the Laboratoire de Chimie de la Matière Condensée, University of Paris VI. At present, he is a CONICET staff scientist, associate professor at UBA, and dean of the Instituto de Nanosistemas, University of San Martín, Argentina. He has published more than 200 papers and has five patents. He supervised more than 14 PhD theses and more than 30 postdoctoral fellows and assistant researchers who are working in academia and industry worldwide. He has also written three science dissemination books. He leads national and international scientific projects, including networking and collaboration with the industry. He obtained several national prizes and has been a fellow of CONICET, CNRS, UBA, and Fundación Antorchas. He has been elected a fellow of ANCEFN and ISGS. His main current interest is the development of mesoporous multifunctional materials and programmable nanosystems for applications in the fields of environment, health, energy, and intelligent materials.

Martín A. Fernández-Baldo (Mendoza, Argentina, 1977) obtained his degree as a National Biochemist (2007) and his Ph.D. in Biochemistry at the National University of San Luis (UNSL, Argentina) in 2011 under the guidance of Prof. Julio Raba, where his research explored the development of electrochemical biosensors with synthesized nanomaterials applied to the agri-food area. He then held postdoctoral positions at the Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP, Brasil) with Prof. Nelson Durán (2011) and then at the Pfizer University of Granada-Junta de Andalucía Centre for Genomics and Oncological Research (GENYO, Spain) with Prof. José A. Lorente (2012), investigating the synthesis and characterization of nanomaterials for antimicrobial and cancer applications. At present, he is an adjunct professor in the clinical analysis area at the UNSL and a National Scientific and Technical Research Council (CONICET, Argentina) staff scientist. Dr. Fernández-Baldo’s research interest comprises the synthesis and characterization of nanomaterials for their incorporation as platforms for the immobilization of biomolecules in biosensors for clinical, environmental, and agri-food applications.
