Serena Psoroulas
Medical physicist and senior scientist University Hospital Zurich
I am a medical physicist and senior scientist from Switzerland. My core expertise is in beam delivery, applied to photon C-arm linacs and proton gantries. My research activities focus on clinical implementation of new radiobiological concepts in clinical practice, focusing on spatially fractionated radiotherapy and ultra-high dose rates treatments (FLASH irradiations). I love working alongside clinicians, biologists and technicians, and with them trying to test the limits of conventional concepts. I also have expertise in innovative treatments for motion mitigation and treatments of moving tumors with protons

Hospital do Meixoeiro, Pontevedra Hospital do Meixoeiro
Desde la finalización de mi doctorado, he volcado mi investigación científica en el área de la radioterapia adaptativa basada en imágenes funcionales, tanto de medicina nuclear como de resonancia magnética, y en protección radiológica. He participado en dos proyectos europeos con financiación de la UE (BIOCAPS FP7, SINFONIA H2020), seis proyectos de investigación nacionales con financiación pública (E-IMRT II, LOCALIZA, ARTFIBio, ARTFIbioDTS y HeNeBra) y en tres de ellos como IP o CoIP. Hasta diciembre de 2021 seré CoIP del proyecto HeNeBra y el IP del proyecto SINFONIA hasta septiembre de 2024 (es un proyecto europeo con 14 centros de investigación, liderado por John Damilakis, anterior presidente de EFOMP). También he colaborado en el proyecto europeo HERO llevado a cabo por la ESTRO en calidad de representante de la SEFM ante la ESTRO. Participo como investigador en el 2 ensayo clínico EORTC 1414 y en el subcontrato correspondiente al IISGS del proyecto Tatanka con la empresa SIVSA.
Como socio de la SEFM he participado como tesorero del congreso de Vigo y enlace con la ESTRO en el período 2015-2019 y en la actualidad soy representante de la SEFM en la EFOMP y continúo participando en la redacción del borrador del CORE CURRICULUM europeo del físico médico en radioterapia, elaborado de forma conjunta por la ESTRO y la EFOMP. También me han nombrado recientemente secretario del comité de asuntos europeos de la EFOMP.

Efi Koutsouveli
Secretaria general de la EFOMP Secretaria general de la EFOMP
Efi Koutsouveli received her MSc degree in Medical Physics from the University of Surrey, UK following a BS degree in Physics at the National & Kapodistrian University of Athens. She is a Medical Physics and Radiation Protection Expert in the Medical Physics department of Hygeia Hospital, Athens, Greece since 1993. Her professional focus is on quality assurance, dosimetry, radiation protection of radiotherapy units (external radiotherapy & brachytherapy), pediatric, stereotactic radiotherapy, radiosurgery treatments and patient safety. She is also active in the training of young Medical Physicists, Radiation Oncologists, Radiation Therapists, Nurses, Administrative staff. Her special interest is on Hospital Quality Management Systems, Oncology Information Systems, Radiotherapy Quality Audits and she is serving on multiple hospital quality committees since 1996. She recently became the Laser Safety Officer of the Hospital.
Currently, she is theTresurer of the Hellenic Association of Medical Physicists (HAMP), the HAMP-ESTRO liaison person and the HAMP delegate to EFOMP since 2014. She is member of the European School of Medical Physics Expert (ESMPE) board, the EFOMP Examination Board (EEB) and one of the editors of the EFOMP European Medical Physics News.
In 2019, she received the IOMP-IDMP award for promoting medical physics to a larger audience.

Catedrático de Física Atómica Molecular y Nuclear. Universidad de Valencia Catedrático Universidad de Valencia
Facundo Ballester es Catedrático de Física Atómica, Molecular y Nuclear de la Universitat de València.
En investigación trabajó en Radiactividad Ambiental midiendo el fondo radiactivo natural en el entorno de la Central Nuclear de Cofrentes antes de su puesta en funcionamiento (1980-198. Estudió el análisis de las dispersiones elásticas e inelásticas y reacciones nucleares inducidas por la interacción de partículas alfa sobre diferentes núcleos medios, desde 40Ca hasta 89Zr, mediante diferentes modelos nucleares. Fue en este campo donde realizó su Tesis Doctoral (1985-1990). En el campo de la física nuclear experimental participó en el desarrollo de detectores en la colaboración TAPS y en la colaboración HADES (1990-1997).
Desde 1996, trabaja en el campo de la Física Médica, en concreto en la aplicación de métodos Monte Carlo en Braquiterapia. Ha dirigido 10 tesis doctorales en el campo de la Física Médica.
Ha sido editor asociado de Medical Physics, Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine y The Open Biomedical Engineering Journal. Participa en grupos de trabajo de la AAPM y la ESTRO.

Antonio López Medina
Hospital do Meixoeiro, Pontevedra Hospital do Meixoeiro
Desde la finalización de mi doctorado, he volcado mi investigación científica en el área de la radioterapia adaptativa basada en imágenes funcionales, tanto de medicina nuclear como de resonancia magnética, y en protección radiológica. He participado en dos proyectos europeos con financiación de la UE (BIOCAPS FP7, SINFONIA H2020), seis proyectos de investigación nacionales con financiación pública (E-IMRT II, LOCALIZA, ARTFIBio, ARTFIbioDTS y HeNeBra) y en tres de ellos como IP o CoIP. Hasta diciembre de 2021 seré CoIP del proyecto HeNeBra y el IP del proyecto SINFONIA hasta septiembre de 2024 (es un proyecto europeo con 14 centros de investigación, liderado por John Damilakis, anterior presidente de EFOMP). También he colaborado en el proyecto europeo HERO llevado a cabo por la ESTRO en calidad de representante de la SEFM ante la ESTRO. Participo como investigador en el 2 ensayo clínico EORTC 1414 y en el subcontrato correspondiente al IISGS del proyecto Tatanka con la empresa SIVSA.
Como socio de la SEFM he participado como tesorero del congreso de Vigo y enlace con la ESTRO en el período 2015-2019 y en la actualidad soy representante de la SEFM en la EFOMP y continúo participando en la redacción del borrador del CORE CURRICULUM europeo del físico médico en radioterapia, elaborado de forma conjunta por la ESTRO y la EFOMP. También me han nombrado recientemente secretario del comité de asuntos europeos de la EFOMP.
