Dr. Angel Lizana

Dr. Angel Lizana completed his MSc degree in Physics and PhD in Physics at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (Spain) in 2006 and 2011, respectively.  His research interests include liquid crystal displays and their application to diffractive optics, as well as the design and implementation of polarimeters. He is also interested in the study of polarimetric methods for the enhanced visualization and classification of biological tissues of both animal and vegetal origin.  

He has been a postdoctoral scientist in the Laboratoire de Physique des Interfaces et des Couches Minces (LPICM) of the École Polytechnique (France), in 2011-12 and in 2013-2014, where he has worked in the optimization and implementation of a polarimeter able to operate in the infrared spectrum, and in the analysis of polarimetric information for its application to the characterization of samples. 

He has published more than 70 papers in scientific journals, 2 book chapters and presented more than 80 communications to National and International conferences. He has been co-supervisor of 4 Ph.D. Thesis.  

Dr. Angel Lizana is member of the SPIE and of Sociedad Española de Óptica (SEDOPTICA). From 2019 to 2023, he was secretary general of SEDOPTICA
