Current Research and Scholarly Interests
My current focus lies in the simulation and experimental implementation of ultra-high dose rate delivery utilizing proton, x-ray, and electron beams for FLASH preclinical studies, with potential applications in clinical research.
Within this domain, I am deeply engaged in exploring the dynamic interplay between various parameters such as beam energy, dose rate, and biological response. Through a combination of computational modeling and hands-on experimentation, I endeavor to unravel the underlying mechanisms governing the efficacy and safety of ultra-high dose rate delivery systems.
By delving into the intricacies of FLASH preclinical studies, my efforts are directed towards unlocking transformative insights that could revolutionize the landscape of cancer therapy. These endeavors pave the way for the development of innovative treatment modalities with the potential to redefine standards of care and enhance patient outcomes in the realm of oncology.
Additionally, drawing upon the valuable insights garnered from the beamline upgrade at PSI's PROScan facility, I am spearheading the design of a compact cyclotron-based proton therapy infrastructure. This innovative design is envisioned to be versatile enough to accommodate conventional radiation therapy bunkers or multi-room facilities akin to tennis courts.
