We are a motivated group of scientists and engineers dedicated to the process of discovery and advancing science and technology on the shores of the Mediterranean. We aim to solve problems that impact human health. Our focus is to develop novel nanotechnologies for next generation brain interfaces. Our areas of research include: neural engineering to develop new technologies for implantable devices that can help treat brain diseases, connect the brain to artificial limbs or restore lost senses such as vision or hearing; and we are interested in biology, chemistry and physics ofnanoscale science to study, and discover new applications of nanomaterials for innovations in biosensors leading to improved characteristics or novel functionality.

Highlighted projects and research directions Capturing and Characterizing Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) in Point-of Care-Platforms CTCs carrying significant information of cancer progression and metastasis make their way from primary or metastatic lesions and enter into circulation. Isolating these from the bloodstream and the characterizing them is essential for early detection and monitoring of cancer. The […]
