Associate Member

The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center
Department of Radiation Oncology

Research Interests:

  • Radiation biology: radiation sensitivity - DNA repair
  • ATM heterozygosity
  • BRCA genes
  • Breast cancer
  • Therapy-induced apoptosis
  • Radiation physics: optimizing dose homogeneity
  • Three dimensional treatment-planning.

My physics research aims are to better quantify the degree of dose inhomogeneity with intact breast irradiation and to determine how patient and treatment factors influence this inhomogeneity.
