DEPARTMENT OF BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING | garino@ucdavis.edu
PROJECT:
I am interested in novel materials with prompt luminescence properties for time-of-flight positron emission tomography and proton range verification in proton therapy such as pure čerenkov emitters and fast scintillation crystals (thallium bromide and thallium chloride). I work on the next generation of photodetectors for these materials.

COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING | sbhalaru@ucdavis.edu
PROJECT:
My project was to help predict blood flow in the hepatic artery to aid in the process of radioembolization, thereby facilitating faster diagnosis for liver cancer patients. I focused on segmenting liver data so that our machine learning program could locate the liver in new patients.

B.Sc. Electrical Engineering, UC Davis.
Junior Specialist
DEPARTMENT OF BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING | enmoghe@ucdavis.edu
PROJECT:
I focused on modeling radiation detectors by creating a standalone program to generate Look-Up-Tables (LUTs) that contained the reflectance of crystals generated from 3D surface measurements. These were used in advanced optical Monte Carlo simulation to increase the accuracy of light transport in scintillation detectors.
