Laboratory Research
Our nationally recognized scientists lead innovative research focused on biomarkers for personalized medicine and the biological consequences of radiation exposure.
This work spans the spectrum from low-dose and low-dose-rate exposure to clinical radiation conditions. By integrating machine learning and AI, we analyze radiation effects in large-scale animal studies and leverage genomics, radiomics and clinical features to precisely assess tumor response.
With cutting-edge methods such as X-ray fluorescence imaging, our department is consistently ranked among the top 20 NIH-funded research institutions.
