Details:
Dr. ELFRIDA CARSTEA graduated, in 2005, the Faculty of Physics, University of Bucharest, specialization biophysics, and in 2007 the Master in Neurobiology, Faculty of Biology, at the same University. Recently she has been awarded with a PhD degree in Physics, University of Bucharest, with the topic on the analysis of surface water using spectroscopic methods: fluorescence spectroscopy, UV absorbance and laser induced fluorescence. During her PhD, she conducted world leading research on fluorescence spectroscopy technique applied to on-line and in-situ monitoring of river water quality. She has published, as first author or co-author, 14 indexed papers (11 papers in ISI Thomson) and participated at more than 20 national and international conferences, out of which, one as an invited speaker, in May 2007, Bristol, UK. During la last year, she started working on optical techniques, namely fluorescence spectroscopy and optical coherence technology, applied to skin lesion diagnosis. The research resulted in the publication of 3 indexed papers and 5 communications at national and international conferences.
