BSc Chemistry, National University of Córdoba, 2007 PhD Chemistry, National University of Córdoba, 2013 Anabel was born in Laguna Larga (Córdoba, Argentina) in 1985. She obtained her BSc Chemistry degree, cum laude, at Faculty of Chemistry Sciences, National University of Córdoba (UNC) in 2007. She has worked for six months as laboratory analyst in the Research and Development of Agrochemical Laboratory, Genbra Argentina S.A. In 2008, she was awarded the prestigious Internal PhD fellowship from CONICET for five years with the project: “New materials using Fischer Carbene Complexes” under the supervision of Prof. Alejandro Granados. She did part of her PhD thesis at the University of Johannesburg, South Africa, under the supervision of Prof. Rui Krause. In 2012, Anabel was awarded a research fellowship from University of Valencia, Spain, to work for three month under the supervision of Dr. M. González Béjar. Her research was focused on the design and the development of biocompatible nanometric systems. She received her PhD in Chemistry with honours at Faculty of Chemistry Sciences, UNC in May 2013 with a dissertation entitled “Synthesis and modification of metal nanoparticles using poli-functional heterocyclic sulphur compounds”. Anabel spent a short time as a posdoctoral research student in both Faculty of Science, Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa under Prof. R. Krause supervision and Faculty of Chemistry Sciences, UNC, Argentina under Prof. A. Granados supervision; working in the development of new metal nanoparticle synthesis focusing in the synthesis of new coated magnetic particles to study their interaction with phospholipids in Langmuir monolayers model membranes. Anabel joined to Scaiano’s group in October 2013 and her research is focused on the heterogenous catalysis using different supported nanomaterials. |
