Francesco Valle
Francesco Valle is since 2008 researcher at Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche where he holds a position at the Institute for the Study of Nanostructured Materials (ISMN) within the research group “Nanotechnology of Multifunctional Materials and Biological Systems”. His research activity is mainly dealing with the application of Scanning Probe Microscopy to the study of biomolecules and cells as well as with the micro- and nano-fabrication of scaffolds for tissue regeneration. He has always been involved in multidisciplinary biophysical projects.
He graduated in Physics at University of Rome “La Sapienza” in 1999 (110/110 summa cum laude) with a thesis work entitled “Thermodynamic properties of biological macromolecules in solution” under the direction of Dr. Giuseppe Briganti and Prof. Paola Londei.
Since November 1999 he has worked at the University of Lausanne (Switzerland) in the group of Prof. Giovanni Dietler at the Laboratory of Living Matter Physics where he obtained the PhD in physics with a thesis entitled “Study of biomolecule conformational changes by Atomic Force Microscopy”.
In 2004 he moved at Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (Switzerland) at the Institute of Complex Matter Physics for a one year post doctoral appointment to study the topology of highly entangled biomolecules by Scanning Probe Microscopy
Between 2005 and 2008 he was post doc at the Nanobiotechnology laboratory of the University of Bologna with a projects on single molecule force spectroscopy of intrinsically unfolded proteins.
Address: Bologna, Italy
