Saman Bahgerpour

Saman Bagherpour graduated with a B.Sc. in Applied Chemistry from Bu-Ali Sina University, Iran, and an M.Sc. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Tehran, Iran, where his research focused on the synthesis and functionalization of metal-oxide nanoparticles. Since April 2021, he has been a PhD candidate in the Faculty of Pharmacy and Food Sciences at the Universitat de Barcelona. His research focuses on the design and synthesis of fluorescent molecules, particularly the BODIPY scaffold, and the functionalization of nanoparticles and microchips using these synthesized molecules for the detection of intracellular biomolecules. As part of his PhD thesis, he is also working on the synthesis of amphiphilic fluorescent molecules for bioimaging applications.
