Samuele G.P. Tosatti, Ph.D. student, is a Research Assistant and Graduate Student at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich. After graduating as a materials engineer he joined the Laboratory for Surface Science and Technology at ETH in 1999. The subject of his thesis is to tailor and characterize the physico-chemical properties of titanium dental implant surfaces through application of novel self-assembled monolayers. Model surfaces with precisely defined chemistry and topography will be tested in vitro and in vivo in collaboration with different project partners.
