BIO

Dr. Stefano Angioletti-Uberti obtained his PhD in Materials Science at Imperial College London in 2010, working on modelling of solid-liquid interfaces in metallic alloys. After that, he moved to the University of Cambridge in the group of Prof. Daan Frenkel, shifting his research to Soft Matter and Nanobiotechnology. In 2013, he was awarded a prestigious Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellowship and moved to the Humboldt University of Berlin (Germany), where he continued his work on functionalized nanoparticles and surfaces with Prof. Joachim Dzubiella and Prof. Matthias Ballauff. In September 2015 he moved to Beijing University of Chemical Technology as Professor of Soft Matter, and since October 2016 he moved back to Imperial, where he leads the SoftNanoLab group, and where he continues his research on nanobiotechnology and computational design, with an emphasis on controlling interactions between functionalised nanoparticles and surfaces with biological matter. In 2023, Dr Angioletti-Uberti co-founded Nanograb, where he currently acts as Chief Scientist, to translate his research in multivalent selectivity for the desing of targeted gene-delivery vectors. Since2024, he is also Chief Scientist at Aminoanalytica, a company dedicated to the design and optimisation of enzymes via molecular modelling and AI.
