Life

Fabris studied chemistry at the University of Padua and finished her master's studies with her master's thesis "Artificial Photosynthetic Reaction Centers: Paramagnetic Intermediates Detected by EPR Spectroscopy" in 2001. [2] She then received her doctoral degree in chemical sciences in April 2006 from the same university. The title of her dissertation was "Peptide Monolayers on Gold Nanoparticles and Surfaces". [2] From 2006 to 2009, she was then a postdoc at the University of California, Santa Barbara. [2] In March 2009, she was also a visiting researcher at the National University of Singapore. In July 2009, she became assistant professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Rutgers University. [2] From June to August 2011, she was a visiting professor in the Air Force Research Laboratory. In July 2016, she is an associate professor at Rutgers University. [2] She is now a full professor at Polytechnic University of Turin in the Department of Applied Science and Technology. [6]

Awards

She received an Air Force Summer Faculty Fellowship in 2011 and the Rutgers Faculty Research Award in 2012. [2] [7]

Research

Fabris research concentrates on plasmonic nanoparticles and their synthesis, functionalization, characterization and application. She is also an expert in surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). [8]
