About the Author
Prof. Franca Morazzoni, Ph.D. in Chemistry at the
University of Milano, became Associated Professor
and then Full Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the
University of Milano-Bicocca. She funded the group of
hybrid nanomaterials at the Department of Material
Science in 2001. As an expert of physical methods in
inorganic chemistry applied to hybrid materials, she
published more than 250 paper in international journals. She was responsible of several national research
projects in the field, participated to the development of
inorganic nanofillers with controlled shape, to be
included in tires, in collaboration with Pirelli Tyre.
Several patents were signed on this topic. She was
Vice Chair of the HINT COST action (2012–2016) on
the organic-inorganic hybrid interface. Professor
Morazzoni has supervised several Ph.D. students and
until 2015 was director of the Ph.D. School of the
University of Milano-Bicocca. She plays piano giving
regularly performance.
