Curriculum

Dr. Gabriela Llosa got a MSc degree in Physics at the University of Valencia (Spain) in 1998. She started her research career in particle physics, first at the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) and the ETH Zurich (Switzerland) in the experiment 'Measurement of the transverse polarization of positrons from the decay of polarized muons', and then at the Instituto de Fisica Corpuscular (IFIC) Valencia, in the construction of silicon modules for the SCT of the ATLAS experiment. She did her PhD thesis at the University of Valencia, on the application of silicon detectors to Compton Imaging (CIMA collaboration). During this period she stayed for long periods in several prestigious international research centers, such as CERN (Geneva, Switzerland) and the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor, USA). In 2006 she moved to Pisa (Italy) as a INFN postdoctoral fellow. She is currently a Marie Curie Intra-European Fellow at the University of Pisa. She works in instrumentation development for medical imaging detectors, in the application of silicon photomultipliers to the construction of a small animal PET scanner and to the combination of PET and magnetic resonance imaging technologies.
