Short Biography

Master in Engineering of Micro and Nanotechnologies. I have experience with several materials' characterization techniques,
namely XRD, electron microscopy, Raman and photocatalytic experiments. I am currently a PhD student focused on the microwave-assisted
synthesis of sustainable TiO2-based platforms for the photocatalytic degradation of organic water pollutants. Main scientific
interests: Nanomaterials, Green nanotechnology, water purification, photocatalysis, materials characterization, TiO2 nanostructures.
