Dr. Antonella Badia has authored and co-authored multiple peer-reviewed scientific papers and presented works at many national and International conferences. Dr. Antonella Badia contributions have acclaimed recognition from honourable subject experts around the world. Dr. Antonella Badia is actively associated with different societies and academies. Dr. Antonella Badia academic career is decorated with several reputed awards and funding. Dr. Antonella Badia research interests include Badia's research focuses on atomic force microscopy (AFM) investigations of the structure/interfacial property relationships of ultrathin organic films (self-assembled monolayers, supported phospholipid films, polyelectrolytes). An understanding of how the two-dimensional organization and defect structure of these films determine their redox properties and surface interactions is key to the engineering of functional surfaces for molecular electronic devices, biomimetic surfaces, and the development of chemically-sensitive AFM techniques..
