Franco Bisceglie, Associate Professor at the University of Parma's Department of Chemical, Life and Environmental Sustainability Sciences, specializes in the synthesis and characterization of metal complexes with thiosemicarbazone ligands. His work bridges bioinorganic chemistry and applied materials science, focusing on anticancer agents, antimicrobial drugs, and sustainable materials.
- PhD in Chemistry (University of Parma)
- Research experience at ICMMO, University of Paris XI
Research spans metal-based therapeutics (copper, gallium, gold complexes), antibiotic resistance reversal, antifungal agents, and environmentally sustainable materials. Key collaborations include CIRCMSB, CERT, COMT, and INSTM consortia.
Recent publications emphasize ROS-scavenging manganese synzymes, gallium-indium antifungal complexes, and light-activated ruthenium anticancer drugs. Articles show interdisciplinary focus across Coordination Chemistry, Oncology, Environmental Science, and Materials Engineering.
Scientific Awards
- CIRCMSB Scholarships for metal ions in diagnostics/therapy and inorganic oncology drugs
Teaching includes General and Inorganic Chemistry for Biology undergraduates and Sustainable Chemistry of Inorganic Materials for Chemistry undergraduates. Leadership roles: Quality Assurance Manager (RAQ) for Parma's Chemistry degree programs (2016-2024), ANVUR accreditation coordinator (2025).
