Paolo Samorì Awarded the 2024 Luigi Tartufari Prize in Physics and Chemistry

The prestigious 2024 Luigi Tartufari Prize in Physics and Chemistry has been awarded to Professor Paolo Samorì by the Italian National Academy (Academia Nazionale dei Lincei). The award ceremony took place on November 7, 2024, in Rome, where the Academy recognized outstanding achievements across various scientific disciplines.

Professor Samorì was honored for his exceptional contributions to the fields of nanochemistry, nanoscience, and functional materials. His pioneering work has been instrumental in opening new chemical frontiers, particularly in organic and graphene-based electronics. His innovative approach combines high control over supramolecular arrangements in multicomponent systems with state-of-the-art methods for unraveling the physicochemical properties of molecular nanostructures. This research aims to develop molecular nanomaterials with unique and multiple properties that can be applied to technologically relevant areas such as nanotechnology, organic opto- and nanoelectronics, and sensing technologies.
