Sabrina Di Masi defended her PhD thesis in Biological and Environmental Sciences and Technologies (SSD: CHIM/01) in May 2020. She received her M.S. degree (cum laude) in Environmental Science from the University of Salento (Lecce, Italy) in 2016. Since January 2020, she is working as Post Doctoral Researcher in Analytical Chemistry Field (CHIM/01) in a project for application of multivariate approaches for big data treatment. From 2016, she is also working as a Ph.D student. In 2018, she worked as visiting Ph.D. student in the Laboratory of Biotechnology in the group of Prof. Sergey A. Piletsky at the University of Leicester (UK). In 2019, she works as Ph.D. student in the Laboratory of Analytical Chemistry in the University of Salento (Lecce, Italy) under the supervision of Cosimino Malitesta and in collaboration with a company in Florence, Italy (Ecobioservices and Researches, S.r.l). Her research interest is focusing on the development of biosensors and electrochemical sensors for the determination of environmental compounds (e.g. heavy metal ions). Her research is also focused on chemical and electrochemical synthesised ion imprinted polymers, their characterisation and the further application in spiked water matrix.
