Research

Since the summer of 2008, I am a PhD student working on a joint industrial project at KTH and RaySearch Laboratories. My academic advisor is Professor Anders Forsgren.

The topic of my research is optimization of radiation therapy treatment plans for treating cancer. In particular, the research concerns optimization methods to account for uncertainties due to such factors as patient misalignments and organ motion.
