About

Linda Piscopo received the master’s degree in physics in 2022 with the highest honor from the University of Salento with a thesis entitled "Optical properties of plasmonic nano-islands on non-planar waveguides for the detection of neurotransmitters ​", working at the  IIT-Center for Biomolecular Nanotechnologies (Arnesano, LE).

Currently, she is a Ph.D. student at the University of Salento in Material, Structure and Nanotechnology Engineering at the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT-Center for Biomolecular Nanotechnologies, Arnesano, LE) where she focuses on wavefront-shaping methods to study plasmonic structures fabricated on multimode fibers.
