Dr Florescu is a Lecturer in Medical Imaging at the University of Surrey, a Fellow of the Surrey Institute for People-Centred AI, and a former Wellcome Trust Fellow. Her research focuses on developing a fundamental understanding of the interaction between radiation and biological tissue and exploiting this to devise new techniques for advanced biomedical tomographic imaging and radiation dosimetry. Prior to joining Surrey, she was Lead Physicist at Elekta, an Associate Research Scientist at Columbia University, a Research Associate at the University of Pennsylvania, a US Academy of Sciences (NRC) scholar at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, and a California Nano-Systems Institute & Hewlett Packard postdoctoral scholar at the University of California Los Angeles. She has received her PhD in Physics from the University of Toronto.
