Francesca Calò has completed her Master’s Degree in Medical Biotechnology and Nano biotechnology between University of Salento (Italy) and Cranfield University (United Kingdom). During her thesis research, she was focused on the development of MIP-based sensors for clinical applications: piezoelectric sensor for cocaine and electrochemical sensor for Rab7 protein. Then, she finished her PhD in Chemistry at the Department of Natural and Environmental Science and Technology of University of Salento. Her innovative research with industrial characterization also included Certified Origins Srl company and University of Davis in California as project partners. During her doctoral studies, Francesca was focused on defining the specific roles of food safety and products traceability in the defence of human health and agro-food excellence. Her work regarded metabolomic techniques applied to extra-virgin olive oils for the certification of geographical origin. In particular, she studied the potential of the NMR-statistical protocol as a scientific instrument in this field.
