Biography

 

Silvia Pani was born and brought up in Udine, Italy.
She obtained her "laurea" degree in 1996 and her PhD in 2001 from the University of Trieste. From 2000 to 2004 she worked there as a post-doctoral research assistant on the development of the first synchrotron beamline for “in vivo” mammography. During the same period she worked as a support scientist to external synchrotron users.

In 2004 she was awarded a two-year Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship, based at University College London, to work on breast imaging using X-ray diffraction CT.
From Autumn 2006 to Summer 2007 she worked at UCL on imaging projects funded by the European Union and by a private company.
In 2007 she moved to Queen Mary, University of London/Barts and The London NHS Trust, where she worked on a Home Office funded project for drug detection using X-ray diffraction.

In 2008 she joined the Physics Department at Surrey as a Lecturer.

Research Interests

Development of X-ray techniques for medical imaging and non-destructive testing, in particular:

  • Breast imaging using conventional and novel techniques (diffraction, CT, phase contrast, K-edge subtraction).
  • Diffraction microCT for breast tissue characterization.
  • Transfer and adaptation of synchrotron-based techniques to the laboratory environment.
  • Homeland security (detection of illegal materials).

Research Collaborations

Current and past collaborations include:

Prof Robert Speller, Department of Medical Physics and Bioengineering, University College London
Dr Julie Horrocks, Barts and The London NHS Trust
SYRMEP Group, University of Trieste/Sincrotrone Trieste SCpA
Counter Drug Technologies Team, Home Office Scientific Development Branch
