Alex Tanno

PhD student, March 2012 to December 2017

Current Research

Alex Tanno's main scientific efforts are devoted to electrochemical biosensing assays. His biosensing project aims at sensing low concentrations of biomarkers in blood or saliva in a cheap and fast fashion, enabling point-of-care diagnostics. A multiple electrochemical amplification strategy is implemented in order to reach the required sensitivity.
