About

Vito Ferro is a Professor at The University of Queensland, Australia. His research primarily focuses on carbohydrate chemistry and its applications in biomedicine, as evidenced by his recent work on heparan sulfate mimetics and antiviral agents. Notable publications include studies on synthetic access to carbohydrates and their role in inhibiting viral infections, including SARS-CoV-2. His contributions to the field also extend to structural insights of sulfated alginates and glycosylations.
