Loredana Casalis
researcher head NanoInnovation Laboratory Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste
Loredana Casalis is an experimental biophysicist and head of the NanoInnovation Lab at Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste. Her research, based on the integration of nanotechnologies with advanced microscopy and spectroscopy techniques, aims to understand the role of the biophysical properties of cellular membranes in regulating fundamental biological processes such as receptor organization and the cellular internalization of nanoparticles, nanovesicles, and drugs. Her work has applications in the development of innovative strategies for translational nanomedicine in oncology and drug delivery.

What happens when changing the microscopic structure of a material, even by a single atom, completely alters the way it behaves? From graphene to biomaterials, tiny variations in the arrangement of atoms can transform a material’s properties and functions. Function will no longer be separate from hardware: in the systems of the future, memory and response will be built into matter itself, and processors will take the form of neurons. A perspective that redefines the relationship between matter, technology and the people who use it.
