Dr. Ellina Macaeva is a post-doctoral researcher at two Belgian Universities: UC Louvain and KU Leuven. Her research is focused on the translational aspects of proton therapy, with a particular focus on proton FLASH effect in zebrafish and mouse model.

Dr. Amélia Maia Leite obtained her Master's degree in High Energy Physics from École Polytechnique followed by a PhD in Particle Physics from the University of Paris-Saclay, France. She is an INSPIRE postdoctoral fellow working at Institut Curie. Her main research interests include the Monte Carlo modelling of LET, RBE-weighted dose distributions and secondary neutron dose of patients treated with proton therapy to correlate with the incidence of radiation induced toxicity. She is also involved in experiments on very high dose rate proton dosimetry (FLASH).
