معرفی
Dr. Gillian Walker is a Researcher at the School of Computing, University of Reading, with over 15 years of interdisciplinary contributions to terahertz technology and its applications in cultural heritage conservation and biomedical imaging. Her work bridges physics, engineering, and archaeology through advanced signal processing and imaging techniques.
- Affiliation: School of Computing, University of Reading
Research Interests: Dr. Walker specializes in terahertz time-domain spectroscopy and imaging systems, focusing on cultural heritage preservation and medical diagnostics. Key areas include:
- Non-Destructive Testing of historical artifacts
- Wavelet domain signal processing for artifact stratigraphy
- Dielectric response modeling of complex materials
- Photoacoustic control via femtosecond pulses
Publications (15 most recent) reflect trends in terahertz cultural heritage imaging, bio-molecular sensing, and multi-sensor data fusion. Collaborations span institutions in France, Italy, and the UK, with applications to Neolithic wall paintings and DNA conformation analysis.
Contributions include:
- Development of THz fluid cells for aqueous solutions
- Advancements in sub-wavelength resolution imaging
- Standardization of THz safety protocols for medical applications
- Creation of image retrieval algorithms for stratified cultural materials
