Luciano Andrés Masullo, a young scientist who made his doctoral scholarship at CIBION between 2016 and 2021, received the Juan José Giambiagi Award, given by the Argentinean Physics Association. This award is meant to recognize an outstanding work in the development and approval of a physics’ doctoral thesis in Argentina.
Masullo’s research, a former member of the applied nanophysics laboratory led by Dr. Fernando Stefani, director of CIBION, is located within the field of research and development of optical nanoscopy for the localization of individual molecules and applications in images of neurons at nanoscale.
“It is an honor to lead young outstandings scientists like Luciano in their way to become top-level researchers. Congratulations!”, Dr. Stefani said in his Twitter account. This is the second time in 4 years that a doctoral thesis student led by Stefani received this award. In 2018, Dr. Julián Gargiulo achieved this award.
After having finished his doctoral thesis, Masullo became a postdoctoral researcher at Max Planck Institute, in Munich, Germany.
