Career

While an undergrad at NYU Poly, Landolina invented Vetigel, a substance intended for the treatment of wounds to skin, internal organs, and arteries.[4] The gel can be used as a replacement for traditional gauze bandages. Landolina created the substance using the extracellular matrix matter from skin as a blueprint using plant-derived versions of polymers.[5] In 2010, Landolina founded Suneris, Inc. with business partner Isaac Miller.[6] Landolina is also a 2014 TED Fellow and received the Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship in 2013 for his work in the field of biomaterials.[7][8][9]

Landolina is Italian-American, and was born in Pine Bush in Ulster County, New York. As a child, he learned about chemistry from his grandfather at their family's winery, Baldwin Vineyards.[10] He graduated from Pine Bush High School in 2010 before attending New York University Polytechnic School of Engineering.[11] As of 2015, he has a bachelor's degree in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and a master's degree in Biomedical Engineering from New York University.[12]
