Damiano Gianotti

Damiano Gianotti is a PhD researcher at VUB Sustainable Materials Engineering (SUME) and Zensor, Brussels. As Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Candidate DC10 in the EU project USES², he works on sensor data-fault detection for building more reliable health monitoring systems. His research also concerns distributed optical fiber strain sensing (FBG, OFDR, FMCW) under high strain gradients, benchmarking centimeter-scale fiber measurements against finite-element models for non-destructive testing and structural health monitoring, with a connected open benchmark dataset of optical fiber strain measurements. He has carried out research secondments at CEA (FR), Inductosense (UK) and Airbus Defence & Space (ES). He holds an MSc in Computer Science (AI & Information Systems) from the University of Turin (2022).
