Finally...... he got it! Congratulations, Matteo!!
Marie Curie Individual Fellowship “NEUROGUIDE” started for Ilaria Tonazzini
Dr. Ilaria Tonazzini started her Marie Curie Individual Fellowship “NEUROGUIDE” (Study of neuronal sensing and migration/guidance dynamics in neurodevelopmental disorders by nano-engineered chips) in the laboratory of Prof. Ype Elgersma at Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam (NL). Ilaria is also in the Erasmus MC website news: https://www.erasmusmc.nl/research-development-office/research-projects/excellent-science/ Like the Neuroguide Facebook page to follow the project!

NeuroSens @ N4M2018
Marco Cecchini and Cecilia Masciullo will be present at the "Nanoengineering for Mechanobiology" conference in Camogli (25-28 March 2018, GE-Italy) with an oral presentation "Nanotopographies for neural contact guidance" by Marco and a Poster Presentation "Cell contact guidance along topographical-directionality gradients" (download it!) by Cecilia.
Congratulation, Eleonora!
On the 12th of February, our "ex"-undergraduated student, Eleonora Savi, gained her Master Degree in Molecular Biotechnology at the Pisa University with mark 110/110 cum Laude. Congratulations, Eleonora, from all the group and good luck for your professional career!
Dr. Ilaria Tonazzini awarded with a Marie Curie Grant! Congratulations!!
Dott.ssa Ilaria Tonazzini just got a Marie Curie Individual Fellowship 2017 with her project “NEUROGUIDE” (Study of neuronal sensing and migration/guidance dynamics in neurodevelopmental disorders by nano-engineered chips). Ilaria will develop her project in the laboratory of Prof. Ype Elgersma at the Department of Neuroscience, Erasmus Medical Center (EMC) in Rotterdam (NL), and in collaboration with CNRnano and the Neurosens group. The project is focused on the study of neuronal sensing and migration in models of neurodevelopmental disorders, at both system and molecular level, in vivo and in vitro, with a multidisciplinary approach that combines molecular biology, micro/nano-engineered devices and state-of-the-art fluorescence microscopy. A Facebook page (Neuroguide) will be available soon and updated with info and news.
