Paolo Zaffino.jpg

Paolo Zaffino works as an Associate Professor in Bioengineering at the Magna Graecia University of Catanzaro, Italy.

At the same University, he earned his PhD in Biomedical and Computer Engineering and his Master’s Degree in Biomedical Engineering.

Furthermore, during his PhD, he was a visiting PhD student at the Department of Radiation Oncology at Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School in Boston, USA.

His research focuses on medical image processing for image-guided therapy and surgery, with a particular focus on radiotherapy and proton therapy.

In this regard, over the years, Paolo Zaffino has investigated and developed algorithms for deformable image registration, atlas-based segmentation, image translation, radiomics, and artificial intelligence applied to medical images.

Since 2023, he has held the role of Visiting Professor at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (Karlsruhe, Germany) and Guest Assistant Professor at the University Medical Center Groningen - UMCG (Groningen, The Netherlands).

In 2021, he received the title of "Honorary Research Fellow" from the Department of Medical Physics & Biomedical Engineering at University College London (UCL), London, UK. Current scientific collaborations also include Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women's Hospital (Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA), the German Cancer Research Center - DKFZ (Heidelberg, Germany), and the European Institute of Oncology - IEO (Milan).

Paolo Zaffino has also contributed to the development of the open-source software Plastimatch, SlicerArduino, SlicerRT, Radiomics.jl, ITK, and SimpleITK.

Awarded grants include a PNNR Next Generation EU project, the "European Association for Cancer Research (EACR) Travel Fellowship 2019," the "Nvidia Grant 2018," and the "Amazon Web Services Research Grant 2014".

Finally, Paolo Zaffino, a member of the editorial board of international peer-reviewed journals in the field (“Discover imaging” and “Neural Computing and Applications”), is also a member of the “National Alliance for Medical Image Computing (NA-MIC)” and the “Italian Association of Clinical Engineers”.
