Demonstrated significant variance in patient plans using econometric modeling. Identified possible anatomical sources of variations (in collaboration with medical physicists). Industrial Engineering and Management Science, Northwestern University, Evanston IL Pre-Doctoral Fellow Oct 2013 - present Developed dynamic programming model for radiation therapy treatment planning. Improved spatiotemporal dose conformity. Mitigated uncertainty from human bias with anatomically-driven multi-criteria optimization. Industrial Engineering, Purdue University, West Lafayette IN Research Assistant Aug 2010 - present Developed robust optimization model for temporally non-uniform radiation therapy plans. Implemented numerical computations of large scale robust model using L-BFGS method. Improved clinical outcomes by ≈ 17% compared to conventional planning, even under worst-case scenarios. Reported significant human bias in plan evaluation using statistical modeling (in collaboration with Indiana University Simon Cancer Center). Established unbiased quantitative metric for treatment plan evaluation. Mentored undergraduate researchers in statistical modeling.
