Why Is Marco Durante Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Marco Durante is an Italian physicist, recognized as an expert in the fields of radiobiology and medical physics in charged particle therapy. During his career, Durante gained extensive experience in the biophysics of heavy ions and space radiation protection performing experiments in top-level institutes all over the world. He developed a new method for biodosimetry of charged particles in order to estimate the late risks of patient undergoing radiotherapy, as well as to predict the consequences of long-term exposures for the astronauts. Concerning space research, he also developed a technique to evaluate the shielding effectiveness of different materials using high-energy ions. Full professor at the Technical University of Darmstadt, Durante is president of the Particle Therapy Co-Operative Group from July 2022 and previously served in the European Space Agency Life Sciences Advisory Group, in the Human Exploration Science Advisory Committee and in the program advisory committees of the GANIL center and KVI Center for Advanced Radiation Technology particle accelerators. He is currently director of the biophysics department of GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research, and is responsible for the biophysics research in the future FAIR accelerator in Darmstadt. He was previously director of TIFPA in Trento and is a member of the scientific committee of the Italian National Centre of Oncological Hadrontherapy .
