Elena Anghel is an engineer in the X-ray Imaging Laboratory for Extreme Light Infrastructure Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) and a Ph.D. student at the Faculty of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnologies, University Politehnica, Bucharest. Her study is concentrated on the biomedical applications of carbon materials. Elena Anghel received her B.S. degree in engineering (applied engineering sciences) and M.S. degree in systems engineering from the University Politehnica, Bucharest, in 2016 and 2018, respectively. Elena joined the X-ray Imaging Laboratory, contributing to its development phases and continuing with phase-contrast X-ray imaging studies for medical and industrial applications, using new X-ray sources produced with the lasers from ELI-NP. Her main research directions are focused on the study of electrochemical sensors based on vertical graphene and phase-contrast imaging to reduce radiation doses in tissues.
