Daniele Pelliccia<\/h2>\r\n

Daniele Pelliccia is an experimental physicist and entrepreneur. He graduated in Physics with a Master Degree in Quantum Optics and Quantum Information. His PhD research has been on x-ray optics and imaging. Daniele has been a staff scientist at synchrotron beamlines in Germany and Australia. During his academic career Daniele has secured a DECRA fellowship (Australia) for the development of novel x-ray microscopy techniques. Since 2017, Daniele has become a full-time entrepreneur, founding the company Instruments & Data Tools<\/a> providing modelling and analytics services<\/a> for industry. In 2018 Daniele founded Rubens Technologies<\/a>, commercialising portable spectroscopy sensors for fruit quality assessment. A full list of his academic publications is available here<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n

David M. Paganin<\/h2>\r\n

David Paganin is a theoretical physicist with a range of research interests in optical physics. He graduated with a PhD in 1999. David has been affiliated with Monash University<\/a> since 2002, first as a lecturer and more recently as an adjunct researcher with the Monash X-ray Imaging Group<\/a> at the School of Physics and Astronomy<\/a>. Highlights of his academic career include a 2006 single-author Oxford University Press book titled \u2018Coherent X-ray Optics<\/a>\u2019, and the co-invention of several techniques in coherent imaging that are currently widely employed in the fields of x-ray synchrotron science, visible-light microscopy, and electron microscopy.\u00a0 A full list of his academic publications is available here<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
