Research interests
My main research interest is pre-clinical ion beam therapy, with a focus on in-vivo irradiation of small animals and successive dose-response analysis. We are currently adapting existing non-clinical infrastructure of an Ion Beam Therapy Center for pre-clinical experiments using proton and carbon ion beams. This includes development of adequate workflows, imaging, dosimetry and treatment planning.
