The XV Research Conference of the Faculty of Pharmacy and Food Sciences took place on the 20th of November 2024. Doctoral students from our group participated in this enriching activity of the Faculty. Apart from listening to the interesting lectures of other students, they presented their research during poster sessions.
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. His PhD research carried out in our group focused 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. He was also working on the synthesis of amphiphilic fluorescent molecules for bioimaging applications. Currently, he continues with these research topics as a postdoctoral researcher.
