Carbon nano-onions (CNOs) are an emerging class of carbon nanomaterials with distinctive physicochemical properties, including small size, high surface area, and favorable biocompatibility. Their multilayered carbon structure and accessible surface chemistry make them attractive candidates for functional nanomaterials in biomedical applications. In this work, we report the synthesis and …

Diplomata all’Istituto Natta di Bergamo, con una brillante carriera accademica a Dublino, la professoressa taglia un nuovo traguardo

La professoressa bergamasca nominata Ufficiale dell’Ordine al Merito della Repubblica Italiana su proposta dei Palazzo Chigi. La sua gioia sui social

Il metodo di somministrazione del farmaco basato sulla nanotecnologia utilizzato e sviluppato da Giordani consente, infatti, di somministrare una maggiore quantità di farmaco direttamente al ‘bersaglio’, con minori danni collaterali alle cellule sane circostanti.

We are proud to celebrate Prof. Silvia Giordani’s appointment as Officer of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic (OMRI), Italy’s highest civilian honour, recognising her exceptional contributions to science and education.

We are excited to invite applications for two Postdoctoral Researcher positions under the supervision of Prof. Silvia Giordani at the School of Chemical Sciences and the Life Sciences Institute at DCU.

Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs), including graphene, carbon nanotubes, and carbon dots, have attracted considerable interest as nanocarriers for drug delivery due to their unique physicochemical properties. Their high surface area, biocompatibility, and modifiable surface chemistry make them highly attractive for a range of biomedical applications. However, concerns regarding toxicity and regulatory …
