Prof. Dr. Makis Angelakeris is a professor at the School of Physics at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. His main scientific interest stems from the synthesis of magnetic thin films, multilayers and nanoparticles. Under this research scheme, he also works also works on structural, magnetic, electric, magneto-optic characterization of magnetic nanostructures. Within the last 10 years he is also involved in Biomagnetism applicability focusing on Magnetic Particle Hyperthermia and Magneto Mechanical Stress.

Alessandro Silvestri received his Ph.D. in Chemistry at the University of Milan (Italy) in 2017. He was a postdoctoral researcher at the Max-Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces (Potsdam, Germany) and CIC biomaGUNE (San Sebastian, Spain). Since June 2023, he has been an Assistant Professor in Chemistry at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. His research interests comprise the synthesis and chemical functionalization of nanomaterials and their application in electrochemical biosensors
