We had the pleasure of hosting Dr. @ContiniClau (@imperialcollege) last week for a fascinating seminar on artificial cells with a focus on how soft matter can lead to cell-like behaviour. Thank you for visiting! See you soon✨

👩‍🔬🧑‍🔬MEET OUR TEAM🎉 Chiara Catania holds a Master’s degree in Bioengineering from @unipd, specializing in #biomaterials and #tissueengineering, and has worked as a research fellow at @cafoscari on #biosensors for molecular diagnostics. (1/2)👇 #softinvaders #microrobotics

SOFTINVADERS is the new project carried on at our lab✨ 🇪🇺 Funded by @ERC_Research (GA 101213190), it officially started in October 2025 and will end in March 2027. It aims at further develop celloid micrororobots so that they can penetrate solid tumors. Stay tuned for more!

Last week marked the 21st Conference on Complex Systems! 🚀 Our postdoc @jyoti_physics had the opportunity to share heed work on harnessing swarm behaviors of active particles to build intelligent microrobots 🔬🤖 #CCS2025 #microrobots #microrobotics #biorobotics

🧑‍🔬🧑‍💻 MEET OUR TEAM 🎉👇 🤝Francesco Loiacono is a #physicsofmatter master's student at @Unipisa 🇮🇹 Having completed a Bachelor's degree in #Physics at @sapienzaroma, he is currently specializing in the #biosystems and #biomaterials field.

🚨Workshop Alert🚨 You still have time to submit your abstract ‼️ 🔗 sites.google.com/view/lm2025…

Today, we had the pleasure of hosting @alf_fonsi, Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute Pierre-Gilles de Gennes, for a talk on reconstituting the #cytoskeleton in vitro to uncover the principles of its self-organization. It was a pleasure to host him and exchange research ideas💡

MEET OUR TEAM🧑‍🔬 We’re excited to welcome Yasmine Ferchichi, a new research fellow at the MRLab! Yasmine is a #biomedicalscientist who earned her Master’s degree from University of Pisa. #biorobotics #microrobotics #team #welcome #science #research (1/2)👇

#InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience 👩‍🔬💜 Here are the women of the #microscaleroboticslab 🔬🤖 Breaking barriers, making discoveries, and pushing the boundaries of innovation every day 💜

Using the two-photon polymerization (#2PP) method, we fabricated experimental setups with #submicron resolution to evaluate the performance of our liposomes. #science #biorobotics #microrobotics #CELLOIDS #microrobot #research

Steps for fabricating active janus microparticles🧑‍🔬 1️⃣Monolayer formation 2️⃣Sputtering with platinum 3️⃣Detachment of particles in water 4️⃣Activity check with hydrogen peroxide #activeparticles #janusparticles #chemistry #microrobotics #microrobot #biorobotics #science

🔸CELLOIDS UPDATE #8🔸 Our #janusmicroparticles are composed of half silica, and half platinum. The platinum side acts as an excellent #catalyst for hydrogen peroxide decomposition. In the video below, you can see a h2o2 droplet placed on flat Pt substrate. (1/2)👇

San Faustino Open Day🧑‍🔬🧪🧬🧫🔬 Here a few photos from the latest science communication event we took part in: the #SanFaustinoOpenDay✨ It is a day when our institute opens its doors to the community, giving everyone a chance to learn about the research happening here.

When science turns into art…✨ Here are polystyrene #microparticles produced through dispersion polymerization. #science #sciart #scicomm #research #scanningelectronmicroscopy @OronCatts @ScuolaSantAnna
