Daphne Jackson Fellow, The Alan Turing Institute
Dr Priscilla Canizares is an Alan-Turing Daphne-Jackson Fellow. She is working on developing a non-invasive biopsy advisor to aid ovarian and kidney tumour diagnosis.
Her multidisciplinary research background spans quantum optics, gravitational-wave astronomy and applied mathematics. Priscilla’s current research interests are clinical-image reconstruction and modelling astrophysical systems, developing tools at the intersection between theoretical physics and machine learning.
Priscilla earned a PhD in theoretical physics at the Autonomous University of Barcelona. After her PhD she was awarded a Beatriu de Pinos and Marie Curie individual Fellowships to work on the LISA and LIGO experiments at the IoA in Cambridge (UK). Then, she joined the gravitational-waves group at the Radboud University (NL). During this period, she went on maternity leave, followed by a career break, including some years in the industry.
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
