Biography
"Daniel (Daniele) is seconded at the Australian Synchrotron and works on image guidance for micro-beam radiotherapy. Other research interests include: X-ray phase contrast microscopy and micro-CT, X-ray scattering, physical and statistical optics.aniel is an optical physicist specialized in x-ray optics and imaging. He is well experienced using many x-ray analytical techniques, microscopy and micro-CT, as well as synchrotron physics. Daniel obtained his PhD in Physics from the “Sapienza” University of Rome (Italy) in 2008. He has been synchrotron beamline scientist at the ANKA light source (Karlsruhe, Germany) in the period 2008-2009. Daniel moved to Australia in late 2009 working as Research Fellow in the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coherent X-ray Science (CXS) at Monash University. In 2012 he was awarded an ARC Discovery Early Career Research Award (DECRA) for the development of x-ray microscopy techniques on compact x-ray sources."
