Massimo Bonini is Associate Professor of Physical Chemistry in the Department of Chemistry “Ugo Schiff” at the University of Florence, Italy. He graduated in Chemistry from the University of Florence in 1999 and a Ph.D. in Chemical Sciences in 2004 with a thesis on Nanostructured Magnetic Fluids: Synthesis and Characterization. From 2007 to 2009 he was a Marie Curie Experienced Researcher at BASF SE (Germany) and ISIS Strasbourg (France), after which he joined the University of Florence as a permanent researcher and, since 2015, Associate Professor. His research focuses on the physical chemistry of nanostructured and interfacial systems, particularly the design, synthesis, and characterization of functional and sustainable nanocomposite materials and hydrogels for biomedical, energy, and environmental applications. He has authored over 95 scientific publications, including more than 90 in high-impact international journals, 4 book chapters, and 3 patents, with over 4300 citations and an h-index of 37. Prof. Bonini teaches courses on Nanostructured Materials, Functional Nanocomposites, and Surface Physical Chemistry, and serves as President of the Bachelor’s Programme in Materials Science at the University of Florence. He participates in numerous national and European research projects, and has received awards including a Marie Curie Fellowship and a scholarship from the Italian Embassy in Australia.
