We aim to champion initiatives that enhance awareness regarding the environmental impact of our research and the operations of the European Society for Biomaterials. Our goal is to minimise environmental damage while maintaining a commitment to high-quality research aimed at advancing human health, as opposed to just maintaining research at a high level.

A Colourful Cuddle
In this experiment, human mesenchymal stem cells (stained with phalloidin) and cell-adhesive microgels (stained with ATTO565 (red) and FITC (green)) self-assembled into a living microtissue. The properties of these cell-adhesive microgels are both physically and chemically tuneable. Moreover, the cell-adhesive microgels are able to direct the behaviour of the cells, for example by influencing cell fate by microgel stiffness.
Instrument used to produce the image: Zeiss LSM880

Biography
PhD candidate in Industrial Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at Politecnico di Milano, where I previously achieved my master degree in Chemical Engineering. I completed my bachelor studies in Chemical and Food Engineering at Politecnico di Torino. I developed a strong interest in bioengineering and biomaterials, especially in the field of nanomedicine for therapeutic applications. My ambition is to merge my engineering background with my passions to develop innovative drug and protein nanodelivery systems able to improve treatments performances against various deseases.
