Dr. Antonella Battisti is a researcher at the Nanoscience Institute of CNR (Italy). She completed her Ph.D. studies in Chemistry and Ph.D. in Chemical Sciences at the University of Pisa. She serves as a counselor for the Italian Biophysics Society (SIBPA), as well as PI for projects related to sensors and smart sustainable materials. Her teaching disciplines are mainly related to biomaterials and additive manufacturing of biomaterials. Her interests include sensors and biosensors (development of new molecules, techniques and platforms for the detection of physicochemical, biological or environmental parameters, biologically active sensing elements able to produce responses that can be converted into readable signals through the action of a transducer, exploration of suitable platforms for the implementation of the final sensing device), and smart materials and biomaterials (development and improvement of novel materials for the realization of responsive devices towards external stimuli such as mechanical stress, moisture, light, temperature, pH, or chemical compounds for the evolution of industrial products (e.g., smart packaging) or renewable energy strategies, as well as the characterization of biocompatible and bioactive materials for applications in the biomedical field.
