Santiago holds a Bachelor's degree in Chemical Sciences from FCEyN-UBA (2015) and a Ph.D. in Science and Technology with a specialty in Chemistry from EHyS-UNSAM (2024). During his undergraduate studies, he participated in research projects on carbohydrate synthesis at DQO-FCEyN and the development of plasmonic nanomaterials for pollutant detection at CNEA. His doctoral thesis was focused on designing strategies for the synthesis, immobilization, and functionalization of gold nanoparticles. Additionally, he worked as a teaching assistant in Organic Chemistry at FCEyN-UBA (2013-2016) and at the Dan Beninson Institute (2015), and since 2019, he has been part of the Chemistry faculty at EECyT-UNSAM. Currently, in his postdoctoral research, he is developing sensing platforms for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) based on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), mesoporous thin films, and plasmonic materials.
