Alberto Quaranta is a Full Professor at the Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Trento, where he has held academic positions since 1995 (Researcher: 1995-2006, Associate Professor: 2006-2016, Full Professor since 2016). His research focuses on radiation detection technologies, nanomaterials, and flexible electronics for applications in dosimetry, neutron detection, and medical physics. Research Interests: Professor Quaranta's work spans radiation detection materials (scintillators, neutron detectors), optoelectronic devices, flexible sensors, and nanomaterials synthesis. Key areas include: Development of organic/inorganic hybrid detectors for proton therapy monitoring 3D-printed scintillators and radiation-hard materials Thin-film devices for dosimetry and beam characterization Nanoparticle engineering in glass matrices Perovskite-based radiation sensors Publication Trends: His recent articles (2023-2025) demonstrate strong focus on: Flexible/organic radiation detectors for medical applications Advanced scintillator materials via additive manufacturing Nanomaterial synthesis for radiation sensing TCAD modeling of semiconductor detectors Novel approaches to neutron/gamma discrimination Research Leadership: Scientific responsible for INFN experiments: ASTHICO (2002-2004), LUPO (2007), ORIONE (2009-2011), HYDE (2012-2014), NADIR (2015-2017), ELOFLEX (2018), FIRE (2019-present) Coordinated EU projects: NEDENSAA (2012-2016), MILA (2017-2018), CHEDDAR (2019-2020) Spokesperson for experiments at Legnaro National Laboratories and APSS Trento Academic Mentoring: Supervised 11 PhD, 17 Master's, and 30 Bachelor's theses in materials science and radiation detection.
