Dr. Stefania Cometa graduated in chemistry (2003) and received a Ph.D. (2007) in chemistry of innovative materials (University of Bari Aldo Moro, Italy). She carried out postdoctoral research (2007–2010) in the
group of Professor Emo Chiellini (University of Pisa, Italy). Currently (2012–today), she works as a researcher in a private company, Jaber Innovation srl. Her research interests lie in the interdisciplinary area of polymers and composite materials for biomedical and hygienic-sanitary applications. Her main expertise is focused on innovative materials formulation and modification in the field of green chemistry, as well as their characterization by means of spectroscopic (in particular, XPS and FTIR) and thermal analyses (in particular, DSC and TGA). She is a coinventor of the patented technology to produce a new
biodegradable superabsorbent polymer, SPONGEL®, winner of the INDEX™ 17 Award in Genève (Switzerland) in 2017. Finally, she is a coauthor of 68 articles published in international journals and 5 book chapters.
