Paola Borri

Paola Borri is an Italian physicist whose research in biophotonics has included the use of Raman scattering in 3d microscopy of cancer-derived organoids.

[1] Other topics in her research have included nonlinear optics and the study of quantum dots.

She is a professor of biosciences and of physics and astronomy at Cardiff University, coordinator of the European Marie Curie ETN consortium MUSIQ,[2] and a Fellow of the Learned Society of Wales.

[2] Her habilitation thesis, Coherent Light-matter Interaction in Semiconductor Quantum Dots, was published as a book by Shaker Verlag (2004).

[2] Borri won a Marie Curie Excellence Award in 2006, for her work on "semiconductor nanostructures and their ultra-fast response to laser light".
