Dr. Georgios A. Sotiriou is an Assoc. Professor (docent) in Biomaterial
Science and tenured faculty in the Department of Microbiology, Tumor and Cell
Biology (MTC) leading the Bionanomaterial Technology lab at Karolinska
Institutet. He received a Diploma in Applied Mathematical and Physical
Sciences from the National Technical University of Athens and an MSc in
Micro- and Nanosystems from ETH Zurich. He received his PhD from
the Particle Technology Laboratory (Prof. Pratsinis group) at ETH Zurich,
Switzerland (2011) and carried out postdoctoral research stays in Harvard
University (2013-2015, Center for Nanotechnology and Nanotoxicology, Prof.
Demokritou group) and ETH Zurich (2015-2016, Drug Formulation and Delivery
Lab, Prof. Leroux group) before joining MTC.

Forskningsbeskrivning
- *Nanoscale functional materials and devices for biomedical applications*
Nanostructured materials show great potential in the biomedical field as they
can serve as superior bioimaging contrast agents, diagnostic and therapeutic
tools. Antibacterial nanosilver, plasmonic nanosized noble metals, quantum
dots, nanophosphors and superparamagnetic nanoparticles constitute some of
such functional materials.
Here, we focus on aerosol manufacturing of smart nanoscale materials and
devices and investigate the parameters that influence their properties,
targeting superior performance in theranostics. Our approach is highly
multidisciplinary combining expertise from material engineering,
bioengineering and health sciences. This allows for the design and
engineering of biomaterials that exhibit the desired functionality in
applications ranging from diagnostics to therapeutic interventions.
If you are a student and you like the above research topics, please do not
hesitate to contact me. Research projects (e.g. master thesis) may be
available!
