Alessandra Zizzari graduated in Materials Engineering with a PhD in Physics and Nanoscience, and she is a permanent researcher at the Institute of Nanotechnology of CNR (CNR NANOTEC, Lecce, Italy). She has developed skills in design and microfabrication techniques (such as optical lithography and wet etching techniques) for LoC and OoC platforms that are suitable for biological, chemical, and material technology applications. In particular, she uses microfluidic technology for the realisation of microreactors of nanoformulations, drug carriers for nanomedicine and droplets, emulsions, sensors, or optofluidic devices. She also has expertise in surface functionalization, AFM, SEM, DLS, and optical microscopy. Additionally, she has experience as a researcher of scientific staff in several projects.
