Maria Letizia Terranova is professor of chemistry at the Faculty of Science, University Tor Vergata, Rome, Italy, heads the Department of Chemical Science and Technology, and coordinates the Interdisciplinary Micro- and Nano-structured Systems Laboratory (MINASlab). She teaches chemistry, solid-state characterizations, and nanostructured materials. Her research activity focuses on the synthesis, processing, and functional testing of nanomaterials. She is author of 240 papers in peer-reviewed journals, 3 books, and 4 patents.

Silvia Orlanducci graduated in chemistry at the University of Rome "La Sapienza," Rome, Italy, in 2000. She received a PhD in chemistry with the doctoral thesis "Synthesis and Characterisation of Nanostructured Carbon Materials" in 2004. In 2007, she was awarded a position of researcher at the Faculty of Science of the University of Rome "Tor Vergata," where she is presently working. Her research activity focuses on the frame of inorganic chemistry and material chemistry and the settling of synthesis methodologies, treatments, and structural/functional characterizations of materials. Her research mainly deals with carbon-based nanomaterials. She is coauthor of 55 papers published in peer-reviewed journals, 1 review, and 1 patent. She serves as referee for outstanding scientific journals.

Marco Rossi is professor of physics at the Faculty of Engineering, University of Rome "La Sapienza," Rome, Italy, and coordinates the scientific activity of EMINA (Electron Microscopies and Nanoscopies) Lab at the Department of Fundamental and Applied Sciences for Engineering. He teaches general physics and nanocharacterization techniques and microscopies. He is a member of the Doctorate Teaching Board in Applied Electromagnetism. His present research activity is primarily aimed at the study of C-based nanomaterials, using scanning probe and electron microscopies and X-Ray and electron diffraction techniques as means to investigate structural, functional and morphological features of the nanomaterials of interest. He is author of 125 papers in peer-reviewed journals and 1 patent. He is co-editor of eight volumes of proceedings and one book.
