Naoki Dominguez Kondo, PhD

RESIDENT
Department of Radiation Oncology

Postdoctoral Fellow

  1. Computation of physics cross-section for heavy ions in Monte Carlo track-structure.
  2. Code development for radiation chemistry applications.
  3. Modeling the effects of oxygen in ROS with DNA.

Bruce Faddegon, PhD

Emeritus Professor
Department of Radiation Oncology

Dr. Faddegon is a board certified clinical medical physics who is internationally recognized for his research in developing and using Monte Carlo methods for treatment head simulation and dose calculation and his development of new technology to improve accuracy and precision in radiotherapy. The overall objective of Dr. Faddegon’s research is to allow for more aggressive treatment in sites where side effects, local control, and even metastases are a problem through cost-effective solutions to improve the therapeutic ratio.
