Horia ChiriacHoria Chiriac received the BSc and PhD degrees in Physics from the "Al. I. Cuza" University of Iasi, Romania. Currently he is Senior Scientist and group leader at NIRDTP Iasi. His main research topics are preparation, characterization and application of magnetic materials (amorphous and nanocrystalline ribbons, wires and glass covered wires, thin films and powders), including the correlation between preparation and magnetic properties, theoretical models for explanation of magnetization processes, magnetoelastic properties and new magnetic phenomena.

His most recent application area is focused on the development of novel sensing devices for various industrial and medical applications. His interest in medical applications includes, sensors, magnetic hyperthermia, magneto-mechanic cancer therapy, magnetically assisted stem cell therapy and drug delivery.

Prof. Chiriac has published more than 475 ISI papers, 9 book chapters and one monograph in Progress in Materials Science. Read More Read Less
