Bio:

Marco Borghesi is Professor of Plasma Physics at the Queen’s University of Belfast, where he has been employed as an academic since 1999. After studies in Italy (Laurea in Physics at Pisa University, and PGDip in Optical Technologies at AILUN, Nuoro), he obtained a PhD in Plasma Physics at Imperial College London in 1998.

His research interests lie in the area of intense laser-plasma interactions, with particular expertise in laser-driven acceleration of ion beams. He has led as PI multimillion, UK-wide EPSRC projects such as LIBRA (Basic Technology, 2007-12) and more recently A-SAIL (Programme Grant, from 2013), aimed to the advancement of laser-ion acceleration towards future medical applications. He has contributed to the development of innovative acceleration schemes, and pioneered the application of laser-driven proton beams to plasma radiography (which has been used to investigate a broad range of plasma phenomena), and high dose rate radiobiology.
