Development of a Novel System for Microdosimetry and Cellular Radiation Response

The overarching goal is to develop a novel system for microdosimetry integrated with cellular molecular radiation response using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, Raman spectroscopy (RS), and radiobiological assays. MC simulations of the system and initial invest...

Machine Learning-Driven Dose Estimation In Biodosimetry: An Alternative to Calibration Curves In Low Dose-Protracted Exposure Scenarios

To determine whether a supervised machine learning (SML) approach to low-dose biodosimetry, trained on radiation-induced chromosomal translocations of astronauts and individual radiation response covariates, could be an alternative method for dose estimation.

Validation of Radiobiological Monte Carlo Simulations Using the Dicentric Chromosome Assay Modified for Human Dermal Fibroblast Cells

Biodosimetry (BD) correlates biological damage from radiation exposure to absorbed dose, providing an accurate method of dose assessment that accounts for individual biological factors. The goal of this project is to modify an existing lymphocyte BD methodolo...
