Summary
Ian Postuma is a research technologist and physicist with 10 years of experience specializing in ionising radiation, neutron dosimetry and Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). He led and was PI of the INFN-funded IT-STARTS project, developing simulation toolkits and improved dosimetry for radiobiological experiments while coordinating a multidisciplinary international network. His work spans radiation simulation, radiobiology, medical imaging and deep learning — including an AI tool for COVID-19 lung infection contouring — and he teaches computational physics to undergraduates. Comfortable bridging lab experiments and software, he pairs hands-on particle-track detection techniques with production-ready coding and project management skills gained directing a three-year research program. Based in Lombardy, Italy, he combines rigorous PhD-level physics training with practical software and communication experience across academic and industry settings.
