Hugh Mohan obtained his BSc (Hons) in Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences from Dublin City University in 2021. He completed his final year project (Investigating 0D carbon nanomaterials in anti-cancer formulations) under the guidance of Prof. Silvia Giordani and obtained an Irish Research Council GOIPG scholarship (GOIPG/2021/210) to further this research during a PhD in the Giordani group. His research project, titled “Carbon Nano-Onions for Theragnostic Applications” focuses on developing nanocarriers based on doped carbon nano-onions to improve anticancer treatments.
