Medical Physics and Data Analytics

Next generation cancer care through personalized radiation therapy.

This joint initiative between UBC Okanagan’s Departments of Physics and Statistics, the BC Cancer Agency’s Sindi Ahluwalia Hawkins Centre for the Southern Interior and Interior Health will enable an interdisciplinary approach to solving major, persistent problems in radiation oncology to positively impact cancer care in Canada. The team’s unique combination of medical physics, statistical, and radiobiological expertise will lead to fundamental contributions in the areas of personalized radiation therapy, improved radiation therapy efficacy, and next-generation imaging for tumour delineation.
