Politecnico di Milano (Italy)

Vamshi Krishna completed his Bachelor’s in science (Physics) from Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning, Prashanti Nilayam, India in the year 2018. He then went on to finish his MSc (Physics) with specialization in Nonlinear optics from the same University, with a project in "Nonlinear optical properties of novel Polymer thin films". His research interests include areas of biophotonics and nonlinear optics.
Consequently, he has been selected as an Early Stage Researcher in the PHAST project under Professor Antonio Pifferi at Politecnico di Milano for the position "Time gated diffuse optical spectroscopy for deep tissue diagnostics".
