Not a bad way 2 start the week! Grateful to the @RoySocChem for supporting my research through an Research Fund grant. This grant will support my project, "Chiral AuNPs templated by self-assembling peptides for antimicrobial response". Looking forward 2 developing this work.🧪

@Rajkuma84458765 @YDChem2022 @ChemicalScience @xuhy0914 @ChemCambridge @DSCF_UniTS Thank you very much, really appreciate it😊

@simoado @YDChem2022 @ChemicalScience @xuhy0914 @ChemCambridge @DSCF_UniTS This is simply awesome

Our review on peptide-based supramolecular cages is finally out in @ChemicalScience #diamond #openacces🎉 Thanks to Prof. Nitschke and Prof. Marchesan for their support, and to @xuhy0914 for the jolly collaboration. @ChemCambridge and @DSCF_UniTS pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

@DasDhanyashree @ChemicalScience @xuhy0914 @ChemCambridge @DSCF_UniTS Thank you very much😊

@simoado @ChemicalScience @xuhy0914 @ChemCambridge @DSCF_UniTS Quite an interesting read!

The review compares cages built entirely from peptides, where structure is encoded in the sequence, with hybrid architectures in which a pre-organised scaffold defines the shape and peptides add selectivity and responsiveness, highlighting opportunities across different fields.

The second explores peptide gels as soft 3D matrices where NPs nucleation and growth occur in situ within a macroscopic yet nanostructured environment. This work illustrates how rational peptide design enables control over the structure and properties of peptide–AuNP materials.

Thrilled to share my first paper doi.org/10.1002/cbic.2… as corresponding author in #ChemBioChem @ChemEurope. In this concept review we discuss how self-assembling peptides control gold nanoparticle nucleation growth and organisation.

The review examines two complementary strategies for templating gold nanoparticles with self-assembling peptides. The first relies on discrete supramolecular assemblies that act as nanoscale scaffolds, enabling precise organisation and chirality transfer.

If you’d like to know more about the work I presented, carried out in collaboration with the Nitschke group at @ChemCambridge and the @MarchesanLab at @DSCF_UniTS, you can read our open-access paper here: doi.org/10.1002/anie.2….

Had a fantastic time in Glasgow for @Faraday_D on supramolecular gels, great to meet so many leaders in the field. Grateful to the organisers for the chance to present my work and to @SupraChem for the 1st Gen Travel Grant that made it possible!

@JakeyLG @Chem_CP @GalliumWu Very cool work @JakeyLG! Congrats 😄

🚨📢Out now in @Chem_CP , @GalliumWu and I figure out how to perturb a non-photoresponsive reaction(🌚) out of equilibrium using our imine-based photoswitches🔦💡This is achieved using a light-responsive transimination!(🌝) #AIPs #imine #OpenAccess doi.org/10.1016/j.chem…

@_beatricebart @UniTrieste Well deserved Bea!😄

I received one of the PhD Innovation Awards from @UniTrieste!🧪 The PhD journey has been incredibly meaningful for both my personal and scientific growth, I’m honored to receive this recognition🤩 portale.units.it/it/notizie/pri…

What a wonderful opportunity to be part of #EFMCISMC24 in Rome and to present my poster on AI and ML-based approaches for the design of new adenosine A2A antagonists in collaboration with @Evotec @MedChemLabUnits. Hope to see you at P467 stand! @EuroMedChem @UniTrieste

Last but not least, I would like to thank my supervisor Silvia Marchesan @MarchesanLab for her guidance and inspiration during these years.

I’m honoured to receive the prestigious Carlo Pedone Award 2024 for my PhD thesis. I would like to thank @itpeptsoc, its president Prof. Mangoni, the previous one Prof. Morelli and @EurPepSoc for the opportunity to present my thesis at 37th EPS and 14th IPS. #peptide #gel

I am very honoured to have the opportunity to present at @SocChimIta National Congress this recently published paper doi.org/10.1002/anie.2… on @angew_chem, born from a collaboration between @MarchesanLab of @UniTrieste and #Nitschkegroup of @ChemCambridge.

@MedChemLabUnits @MargheritaPers2 @esmecurbino @Evotec @DSCF_UniTS Congrats @MargheritaPers2 😄

Congratulations to @MargheritaPers2 to have been selected for an oral presentation at @esmecurbino! She presented part of her work made in collaboration with @Evotec on AI for the development of A2A adenosine receptor antagonists @DSCF_UniTS

Honoured to write this piece for @Nature on the break-through by #GazitLab on #Selfhealing #glass from a simple #peptide — just add water nature.com/articles/d4158… @UniTrieste #materials #science #selfassembly

Happy to share the article relative to my master #thesis on #insulin fibrillation #inhibition. Thank you to my supervisor @MarchesanLab and @annagarfer for driving this work and to my cosupervisor @simoado for backing me up throughout the thesis. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…
