The Nanomedicine Lab has been awarded one of the European Research Council prestigious ERC Synergy Grants 2024 to co-develop the SKIN2DTRONICS project, which aims to integrate conformable electronic devices based on 2D materials to monitor brain cancer recurrence.

Together with Gianluca Fiori (Università di Pisa), Andres Castellanos-Gomez (Instituto de Ciencia de Materiales de Madrid-CSIC) and Andras Kis (École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne), we intend to integrate transistors directly onto ultra-flexible, skin-like substrates, aiming for a fully integrated signal processing sensing circuit. Our role in the Nanomedicine Lab will be to co-design this cutting-edge technology specifically for the continuous monitoring and early detection of aggressive brain cancer recurrence.

The European Research Council (ERC) Synergy Grants are among the most prestigious research awards in Europe, designed to support exceptional collaborative projects tackling major scientific challenges. These grants not only provide substantial financial support, but also bring significant recognition to researchers and their institutions on an international scale. Read the ERC Press Release about the ERC SyG 2024 awards here.
