Alexia Marques Silva

Alexia Marques Silva's research focuses on synthesizing and studying ruthenium(II) metal complexes, particularly examining how light can trigger the release of biologically active molecules (such as nitric oxide) or drugs from these compounds. This work connects inorganic chemistry with biological applications, including effects on blood vessels, DNA damage, and potential drug-delivery systems using light-activated metal compounds and nanoparticles.

Publication output was minimal or absent in several years earlier in the decade but has increased notably in 2023 and especially 2025, suggesting a recent uptick in activity.
