About
Olivia Masella is a pioneering researcher in medical physics, dedicated to expanding global access to radiotherapy. Her work focuses on developing low-cost, innovative radiation delivery systems for underserved regions, particularly low- and middle-income countries and rural areas. Masella’s major contributions include the initial characterization of a novel dual-robot orthovoltage radiotherapy system, which employs non-coplanar techniques to treat cancer affordably—a paper that has already garnered 4 citations since its 2025 publication. She also led the development of a motorized iris collimator for kilovoltage x-ray radiotherapy, a lightweight, 12-leaflet device weighing just 4.8 kg, designed to enhance precision and reliability in low-resource settings (2 citations). Her work addresses a critical global health disparity by engineering practical, cost-effective solutions that could revolutionize radiotherapy access. Masella’s achievements demonstrate a rare blend of engineering ingenuity and humanitarian impact, making her a rising leader in the effort to democratize cancer care worldwide.
