Paweł Bilski graduated from the Faculty of Physics and Nuclear Engineering of the AGH University in Kraków, Poland, in 1990. Since that time, he has worked at the Institute of Nuclear Physics in Kraków in the areas of radiation physics and dosimetry. He received his Ph.D. in 2001 on a topic in the field of thermoluminescent dosimetry, obtaining a habilitation degree in 2012 and the professor title in 2018. He is the head of the Department of Radiation Physics and Dosimetry at the Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences in Kraków and associate editor of the Radiation Measurements journal. His main research activities concern the phenomenon of luminescence (TL, OSL, RPL), applications of luminescent materials to dosimetry of ionizing radiation, development of new luminescent detectors, and measurement methods, and, in particular, dosimetry of cosmic radiation in space missions.
