Gabriella Caminati

Gabriella Caminati was born in Florence, Italy, in 1960. She received the M.S. degree in chemistry and the Ph.D. degree from the University of Florence, Florence, Italy, in 1985 and 1989, respectively. After a postdoctoral position at Colombia University, New York, and at the Max-Planck Institute, Gottingen, Germany, she joined the faculty at the University of Florence in 1991. Her research interests include physical chemistry of micro-heterogeneous and interfacial systems, photophysics in confined environments, as well as preparation and characterization of nano-organized stuctures (Langmuir monolayers, LB films, and SAMs) for molecular recognition applications and design of electrooptical devices.
