About

Giulia Coco is an emerging researcher at the forefront of edible and sustainable electronics, specializing in organic transistors, biocompatible materials, and next-generation integrated circuit design. Her most notable work, "Printed Integrated Logic Circuits Based on Chitosan-Gated Organic Transistors for Future Edible Systems," published in 2025, represents a significant breakthrough in the field of edible electronics — devices constructed entirely from materials safe for human ingestion. This research addresses critical global challenges, including electronic waste reduction and the development of ingestible technologies for food quality monitoring, targeted drug delivery, and gastrointestinal diagnostics. By leveraging chitosan, a naturally derived biopolymer, as a gate dielectric in organic transistors, Coco's work bridges the gap between functional electronics and biological compatibility, opening pathways toward edible robotic systems with embedded sensing capabilities. Already accumulating 11 citations shortly after publication, her research signals strong community interest and relevance within the rapidly evolving landscape of bioelectronics. Coco's contributions position her as a pioneering voice in sustainable, human-safe electronic systems with profound implications for medicine, food science, and environmental responsibility.
