Giovanni Ettore Gigante

He is now the President of the Council of Educational Area of Technology for Restoration and Conservation of Cultural Heritage in the University of Rome La Sapienza . He is the national coordinator of University courses for Conservation and Restoration. He is a founder member of Italian Archaeometry Society. He had the responsibility of national and international research projects funded by Italian Government, EU and NATO. He is an expert of ND techniques applied to the diagnostic procedures in the field of Medicine and Conservation. The main subjects of his activities are: Imaging with x ray, x ray spettrometry and development of related instrumentation. Author of books and articles on the relationship between sciences and humanities having also a dissemination aim. He was several times guest, also for long period, of foreign research institutions in Belgium, United Stated and Brazil. He is leader of some research projects and he his responsible for projects of cultural exchange with Mexico and Brazil. His research interest has been focused on the development of ND techniques, applied nuclear physics, imaging and image processing, archaeometry and conservation. He is author of a large number of papers concerning the x ray physics and the development of techniques in journals of physics and applied physics and, more recently, on technique for image acquisition and processing. He is involved in some international collaboration and was invited speaker in national and international conferences in biomedical physics and archaeometry.
