I am multilingual energetic, passionate and driven professional with 8+ years’ commercial experience in business development and sales related to medical devices and laboratory equipment in life sciences and molecular diagnostics. My strong scientific background and international experience complete my profile, allowing me to be a 360° professional. After completing BSc and MSc degrees at the University of Rome “La Sapienza” in Clinical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering, respectively, I was selected as a research scientist for the prestigious international Marie-Curie research network. My project focused on the development of opto-electrochemical biosensors for cancer detection. During this period, I completed my MPhil in Electronic & Electrical Engineering at the University of Bath. Through collaboration with Dublin City University, my contribution to the development of fragmented antibodies resulted in the realisation of an electrochemical biosensing platform and its publication in several prestigious journals. My ambition for the new challenges led me to join Zimmer & Peacock. A company focused on developing electrochemical biosensors for medical, environmental and food applications, where I held the international sales and business development manager position. Later I joined Medline Scientific as a regional manager, directing the sales and supply of medical equipment and consumables for hospitals, academic institutes and industries.
One of the biggest challenges in sample management is maintaining the integrity of your samples and output data, which only scales as your operations grow. Proper handling and storage is vital to preventing contamination, degradation, or loss of the sample, which can all compromise the accuracy and reliability of your results. Our automated solutions have been carefully designed with intuition in mind, so that you can stay organized in the lab while saving valuable time and resources.
SPT Labtech designs and manufactures robust, reliable and easy-to-use solutions for liquid handling, sample preparation and management, plus cryo-EM. We enable life scientists through collaboration, deep application knowledge and leading engineering to accelerate research and make a difference together. Our essential tools include state-of-the-art solutions developed for: - unique low-volume liquid handling for genomics, compound screening and protein crystallography (mosquito® X1, mosquito® HTS, mosquito® crystal, mosquito® LCP, mosquito® HV, dragonfly® crystal, dragonfly® discovery and a full range of validated consumables such as tips and plates). - flexible sample management workflows from ambient to -80°C (arktic®, arktic® XC, comPOUND®, lab2lab) - Sample management solutions (XL tube handler, LabePro, Autocap, Barcode scanners) - cryo-EM enabling technology (chameleon). SPT Labtech was formerly TTP Labtech

Zimmer and Peacock see that sensors are a critical part of several Social and Commercial Revolutions, including the Internet of Things (IoT), Sensor Web and the In-vitro Diagnostics Market (IVD) growth. Zimmer and Peacock partner with academia and industry to ensure that there are enough suitable and commercially available sensors to meet the requirements of these new and growing markets. As part of this, Zimmer and Peacock provide a range of products and services, including sensors, the necessary hardware, customer-specific Android and iOS applications, IP generation and scalable manufacturing. Part of the remit at Zimmer and Peacock is to innovate around our collaborator's inventions and to help bring ideas to market.
Electrochemical localised surface plasmon resonance for detection of novel prostate cancer biomarkers. In this project is explored the combination of Localised Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) with electrochemistry to provide detection of PCa biomarkers. This novel approach will allow rapid, real-time analysis of biomolecular interactions in micro-volume sample sizes providing precise information on affinity, kinetics or concentration with high sensitivity. Novel and alternative prostate cancer biomarkers will be tested with the technique.
