The control of drug bio-activity is a crucial requisite. In this aim, the use of light as trigger of the biological effect is ideal as it allows an excellent control of the treatment in terms of location, time and dosage. My research work aims to the development of new photo-activatable therapeutic strategies, in particular in the photo-controlled release of unconventional therapeutic agents (NO, 1O2, heat). I am also interested in the study of photochromic systems in nanoparticles.
