Dr Caloz is a full-time medical physicist specialized in radio-oncology working at HUG (Hôpitaux Universitaires de Genève) since 2021. After three years of clinical experiences, he obtained his Swiss Federal certificate (SSRPM) in medical physics, with a speciality in radiation oncology in 2023. Previously, he worked as a postdoctoral research scientist at EPFL, focusing on semiconductor physics, particularly gallium nitride-based gas sensors. He also contributed to an R&D project in quantum technologies between ID Quantique and the University of Geneva, leading to technology transfers and a patent. Dr Caloz’s expertise spans radiation oncology, medical imaging, nanofabrication, quantum optics, and superconducting single-photon detectors. 

Physicist by training and curious by nature, Francesco Guescini works as Senior Data Analyst at MSC. He got his PhD in particle physics at the University of Geneva, where he searched for evidence of new physics in the collisions recorded by the ATLAS experiment at CERN. Dr. Guescini then worked on silicon sensors development and data analysis as a postdoc at TRIUMF and at the Max Planck Institute. Since 2023 he brought his expertise to MSC, where he provides data-driven insights for accurate business decisions.

With over 15 years of work experience in physics, engineering, and leadership, Dr. Kiselev is the CEO and CTO of Plair SA, a company that provides innovative solutions for real-time microbial monitoring. He holds a PhD in Physics from the University of Geneva, where he also worked as a scientific collaborator and a technician. He also holds Executive MBA degree from the IMD business school. He has multiple skills in physics, aerosol science, real-time microbial detection, and metrology, and has won the HMEI Award for best engineer. His core competencies include developing and implementing cutting-edge technologies, managing and mentoring teams, financial planning, and collaborating with academic and industrial partners.

Dr Attilio Picazio, a particle physics PhD graduate from the University of Geneva, is a dynamic leader currently holding the role of Documentation and Shared Service Centers Manager at MSC (Mediterranean Shipping Company). He joined the company in 2021 as Global Agencies Business Analyst. In 2020, as part of the HUG's Unité d'Épidémiologie Populationnelle, he contributed to the measurement of seroprevalence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies. From 2015 to 2020, he coordinated searches for new physics phenomena with advanced data science and machine learning techniques within the ATLAS Collaboration at CERN in Geneva, as a postdoc with the Elementary Particle Physics Experiment group at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. 

Dr Ricco is a Data Scientist at Procter & Gamble (P&G). From 2019 to July 2024 she worked first as a Marketing Technologist and then as a Technical Product Manager in the same company. She was a PhD Research Assistant at the University of Geneva from 2014 to 2018, specializing in the experimental study of quantum materials using ARPES. Dr Ricco’s research involved crystal growth, electronic structure calculations (DFT), and data analysis. She contributed to over 10 experiments at the university and major synchrotron facilities and designed an innovative device to study crystal responses to mechanical pressure.
