Teaching Activities

  • 2024 Teaching tutor for the course "Advanced Materials for Cultural Heritage - Module 1 Nanomaterials and Gels for Restoration," University of Bologna.
  • 2021-2023 Teaching tutor for the course "Chemistry for restoration", Università di Bologna

Scientific Activities

  • Since 2024, she has been participating in the PRIN 2022 project, focused on evaluating the depth of penetration of NIR and X-rays to obtain highly informative 3D spectral images in the NIR and XRF spectral regions for heterogeneous samples.
  • During her PhD (2020-2023), she conducted research related to the development of innovative methodologies for the non-invasive analysis of artworks. In particular, she focused on the use of hyperspectral imaging techniques integrated with chemometric methods for data processing, aimed at characterizing materials from cultural heritage.
