BIO

Distinguished Professor Anatoly Rozenfeld is the Director and founder of CMRP, and is world renowned for his research work on semiconductor radiation detectors and their application for mini- and micro- dosimetry in radiation therapy, radiation protection, nuclear medicine and space sciences.
He is a member of numerous editorial boards and international advisory committees on Solid State Dosimetry, Micro-dosimetry, IEEE Radiation Instrumentation Steering Committee, IEEE NPSS Transnational Committee and local committees, including the Australian National Hadron Therapy Steering Committee, Prostate Cancer Institute, Australian HEP Executive Board and NHMRC Academy.
He has also established a strong research program on Proton and Heavy Ion Therapy in Australia. Professor Rozenfeld is the founder of the biennial international workshops on Mini Micro-Nano- Dosimetry and its Applications, and Modern Technology for Prostate Cancer Treatment, and was President of the Solid State Dosimetry (SSD 16) international conference in 2010 and General Chair of IEEE NSS MIC 2018 in Sydney. He served as Vice Chair and Chair of International Solid State Dosimetry Organization (ISSDO). He is currently a Member of ICRU of Micro-dosimetry Report Committee and Space Medicine Committee of Australian Space Agency.

The Medical Radiation Physics research and educational programs developed by Professor Rozenfeld at CMRP were recently recognised as being above world standard by the Australian Research Council Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) in 2015 and 2018, and CAMPEP accredited.
Moreover, Professor Rozenfeld has published more than 400 articles, 5 chapters in books, holds 19 granted patents, attracted more than $17M competitive grants, and also delivered many keynote speeches, invited talks and seminars around the world. He is the recipient of the 2014 UOW Vice Chancellor Excellence Awards for Researcher of the Year and the Award for Outstanding Achievements in Research Commercialization. He is also the recipient of the NSW Premier’s Award Outstanding Cancer Researcher of the year 2022, the IEEE NPSS Glenn F. Knoll Radiation Instrumentation Outstanding Award Achievement Award and the Australian Nuclear Association 2023 Award.
