Giulia Suarato

Born in Milan, class of 1985, Giulia Suarato graduated summa cum laude in Materials Engineering at the Politecnico di Milano in 2010. She earned her PhD in Materials Science and Engineering at Stony Brook University (State University of New York, New York, USA) in 2016, studying multifunctional nano-micelles for the controlled release of drugs towards 2D and 3D cellular systems for applications in the field of neuroscience.

From 2016 to 2021, she was a postdoc at the Italian Institute of Technology in Genoa, in the Smart Materials group and the Translational Pharmacology Facility, developing intelligent and biodegradable biomedical devices, taking inspiration from Nature and using bio-resources and natural waste as raw materials, with the aim of developing technological solutions for a more sustainable care system.

Since December 2021, she has been a researcher at the Institute of Electronics, Information Engineering and Telecommunications of the CNR (CNR-IEIIT), where she studies, through computational bioelectromagnetics approaches and in vitro models, nanomaterials and nanostructures activatable by electromagnetic fields, to deliver bioactive molecules in the cardiovascular field and to stimulate cells and tissues (such as skin, blood vessels, and the nervous system).

In addition to her passion for research, she is dedicated to Flamenco and scientific outreach, an interest that led her to connect with the world of Women&Tech® ETS, actively participating in the activities of the Young Ambassador group from 2022 to 2026.
