  Christian Demitri

  Dr. Christian Demitri, Associate Professor, University of Salento, Italy. He focuses on the development of biomaterials for biomedical applications, particularly the use of natural and synthetic polymers in regenerative medicine. He conducts research on the properties-structure relationships of biomaterials, the functional modification of materials via bioactive molecules, and the development of sustainable production techniques. He also works on the synthesis and characterization of natural polymer-based nanoparticles for DNA detection and the evaluation of the cytotoxicity of materials through cell assays.
