Professor Teresa Pellegrino joins the Associate Editor team

Welcome to Nanoscale and Nanoscale Advances!

We are delighted to welcome Professor Teresa Pellegrino, Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, Italy, as a new Associate Editor working across Nanoscale and Nanoscale Advances.

Teresa Pellegrino received her Master’s in Chemistry in 2000 and her PhD in Chemical Synthesis and Applied Enzymatic Chemistry in 2005 from the University of Bari, Italy. In 2014 she became a tenured Team Leader of the Nanomaterials for Biomedical Applications Group at the Italian Institute of Technology, Genoa, Italy.

Her current research interests focus on the synthesis of inorganic nanocrystals with an emphasis on magnetic materials and organic-inorganic nanostructured materials for drug delivery, magnetic hyperthermia, photo-thermal treatment and radiotherapy.
