Dr Hans Rolfsnes MSc PhD
I received an MSc in electrical engineering in 2003 from the
University of Tromsø in Norway. I then went on to work as a
researcher at University of California, San Francisco, and as a
medical physicist/researcher at Haukeland University Hospital
in Bergen, Norway. In both posts I was working on microwave
and radiofrequency hyperthermia for cancer therapy,
microwave antenna design, microwave radiometry for medical
thermometry and electromagnetic non-ionising radiation
protection.
I've now just completed a PhD in Paul Campbell's group where
I worked on optimising pressure fields for the delivery of
therapeutic ultrasound as well as looking into the nuances of
our favourite toy, the Cordin 550 high speed camera.
The new project uses lasers to disrupt the stratum corneum of
skin and where we are hoping to achieve siRNA delivery in
order to alleviate a range of dermatological conditions.
