Very happy to announce the "3Nano2026: 8th International Conference on Nanoscience, Nanotechnology and Nanobiotechnology", which we will be organizing in Palermo from September 21 to September 25, 2026. Check out conference website: 3nano2026.com/
See you in Palermo!
Very proud of @AliceSciortino3 , my first PhD student and, to this day, one of my closest collaborator and colleague.

Still one week to apply for the AFuN25 summer school. PhD students and postdocs interested in nanoscience, come and join us in Palermo from September 29 to October 1st! Have a look at the school webpage: afun25school.com
Still a few weeks to apply to our Summer school on Advanced Functional Nanomaterials, that will take place in Palermo from Sept 29 to Oct 1st. Three days of exciting lectures from worldwide known speakers, and enjoy Palermo at the same time! More info —-> afun25school.com
Some fun by coupling carbon dots and plasmonic NPs, in our new paper just published on nanoscale —-> Engineering the surface of carbon dots for enhanced photoluminescence and controlled plasmonic interactions - now published in Nanoscale pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…
Our work on quantum dot superstructures being featured on the front cover of Nano Letters! 😉

At University of Amsterdam with @EMarino_nano for a series of scientific meetings. Cannot say I am enjoying the weather, but this city is always beautiful and science has been quite productive. 😉
Another interesting adventure in random lasing! :) Congrats to my former MSCA postdoc @pramanik_ashim and to all other co-authors.

Very happy to see our work on ultrafast photonics and transient absorption microscopy of quantum dot superparticles finally published on NanoLetters! :) Check it out here-> Ultrafast Switching … Quantum Dot Superparticles | Nano Letters pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021…
First of my two talks at #MRSfall conference in Boston. HUGE event, lots of discussions, very inspiring talks. Also, special mention to Boston’s lobsters and oysters! 😃
Closing session of the #3Nano2024 conference in Brasilia. A small but very vibrant conference! Lots of interesting scientific discussions for the whole week. And stay tuned for next edition, which will be in Palermo in 2026!! 😉
Congratulations to my MSCA postdoc @pramanik_ashim for our excellent work on random lasing just appearing (open access) on ACS Photonics!! 😎😎 very proud of your work @pramanik_ashim!

To any young researcher from Ukraine interested to join our group and eligible for this call: please feel free to reach out so we can prepare an application! I would be more than happy to welcome you in our labs :) sareurope.eu/msca4ukraine/in…
Exciting opportunity in our group!
#PhD position available in our group at the Department of #Physics and #Chemistry @unipa_it! Application due in July, start date in November. We will work on the optimization of #photosynthesis in plants and algae by the use of fluorescent nanoparticles that adjust light intake.
Very happy of sharing our new work on Advanced Functional Materials! We combine #nanographenes with polystyrene microbeads to fabricate all-carbon-based fluorescent optical microresonators with many possible applications in #photonics. Check it out at: doi.org/10.1002/adfm.2024020…
