Functional Molecular Materials

Matteo Atzori is a postdoctoral researcher in inorganic chemistry at the University of Florence, Italy. He obtained his degree in chemistry at the University of Cagliari, Italy, and his joint PhD in molecular inorganic chemistry at the University of Angers, France, and at the University of Cagliari, Italy. His current research focuses on the investigation of magnetic molecular materials for applications in quantum computation. Flavia Artizzu is a [PEGASUS]2 Marie Słodowska Curie fellow at the University of Ghent, Belgium. She graduated in chemistry at the University of Cagliari, Italy, where she obtained her first PhD in chemistry and second PhD in physics. Her current research is focused on the development of nanocomposite materials based on lanthanide emitters for ICT and biomedical applications.
