Lorenzo Signorelli

PhD student

Friedrich-Alexander University

Biography

Lorenzo Signorelli has master’s degree in Chemical and Pharmaceutical Technologies from the University of Parma (Italy), with background in inorganic and organic chemistry, biology and pharmacology. His research interests lie at the intersection of neurobiology and materials science. Early in his research career he studied the correlation of the aggressiveness with the male’s reception of female pheromones in rodent models. His expertise with rodent models involves behavioral tests and immunohistochemical analyses of neurological tissues. Lorenzo’s PhD work in the biointerfaces lab, led by Prof. Gregurec at FAU Erlangen (Germany), is extended from neurobiology to materials 
science for developing new interfaces for neuromodulation applied in the deep brain and overcome limitations of existing neuromodulation approaches. He is testing cutting-edge approaches to design nanoscale materials capable to communicate remotely with the deep brain neurons. Besides magnetoelectric materials, he is developing magnetic nanotransducers for remote, cell specific and temporally precise neuromodulation leveraging his skills in synthesis and coating of functional nanomaterials
