Cinzia Da Vià is a Professor of Physics at the University of Manchester UK, and currently a visiting Professor at Stony Brook University USA. She received her PhD in Physics from the University of Glasgow, Scotland in 1997 and is an expert in semiconductor detector development for High-Energy Physics and Medical applications where she authored more than 300 papers of which several on the evaluation of the first 3D sensors prototypes ever fabricated. Member of the ATLAS Experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider since 2007, she was the founder and leader of the 3D ATLAS pixel R&D Collaboration (2007-2014), which successfully designed and industrialized the first 3D sensors to be installed in a Collider. 3Ds are successfully operating in the ATLAS experiment since 2014. She is currently involved in novel 3D sensors designs, 3D printed dosimetry, quantum imaging and vertical integration of smart-systems. She is one of the founders of the ERDIT Network to promote Radiation Imaging Technology research across different applications in Europe and a member of the Independent Committee of the ATTRACT initiative, which funds innovative technologies in the field of radiation detection and imaging across Europe.

Gian-Franco Dalla Betta is a Full Professor of Electronics at the University of Trento, Italy. Born in Venice, Italy, in 1967. He received the M.S. degree in electronics engineering from the University of Bologna, Italy, in 1992 and the Ph.D. in microelectronics from the University of Trento, Italy, in 1997. Since 1997 to 2002, he was with the Institute for Scientific and Technological Research (ITC-IRST) of Trento, Italy, as a Researcher and since November 2002, he moved to the University of Trento. His main research expertise is in design, simulation, fabrication and experimental characterization of silicon integrated devices and circuits, with emphasis on radiation sensors and 3D sensors of which he was among the first to
