Maria Vittoria Balli is currently pursuing her PhD under the supervision of Prof. Luca Prodi, in the Luminescent Nanomaterials and Sensors for Health and Environment research group of the University of Bologna. Her research focuses on the investigation and development of innovative luminescence- and electrochemiluminescence-based biosensors for healthcare applications. As part of the European Union’s Horizon Europe EIC Pathfinder Open Programme project “ECLIPSE”, she was a visiting researcher at the Institute of Nanotechnology (INT) at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany, where she worked on the design and characterization of cucurbit[n]uril-based chemosensors.
