During this period, among various administrative jobs, has participated in the preparation of two Erasmus Mundus MSc programmes in the field of Materials Science which she coordinated and/or was/is member of the coordination team, indeed one of this programs has obtained funding from EU for the 3rd time; In the area of supervision, has supervised 43 MSc Students (concluded; various in industrial environment), 6 PhD students (concluded), 4 Post Docs (concluded), and 4 research technicians (concluded). The research has focused on (i) synthesis and characterization of functional polymer based nanocomposites; (ii) emulsion and miniemulsion polymerization; (iii) living/controlled radical polymerization mechanisms; (iii) fabrication and characterization of thin films for biosensor applications; (iv) chemical modification and characterization of polymeric materials from renewable resources; (v) thermal analyses of polymer and polymer based nanocomposites.
