Regular biography
Camilla Di Mino is a Research Fellow in Chemistry at the University of Oxford, affiliated with the Department of Chemistry. Her research focuses on understanding competitive intermolecular interactions and solvation patterns in liquids, with applications in areas such as protein frameworks, plastic electronics, and battery electrolytes. She utilizes neutron scattering to study weak cooperative interactions, which provides insights into molecular mechanisms that classical simulations cannot predict. Di Mino's work also explores liquid/nanomaterial interfaces, particularly through liquid suspensions of nanomaterials to enhance scattering signals. She holds a BSc and MSc in Condensed Matter Physics from Università Roma Tre and completed her PhD at UCL before joining Oxford as an EPSRC/Glasstone Research Fellow.
