Norbert Pelc
Norbert's primary research interests are in the physics, engineering, and mathematics of diagnostic imaging and the development of applications of this imaging technology. His current work focuses on computed tomography, specifically in methods to improve the information content and image quality and to reduce the radiation dose from these examinations. He holds doctorate and master's degrees in Medical Radiological Physics from Harvard University and a BS from the University of Wisconsin in Madison. He served on the first National Advisory Council of the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering of the NIH. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and a Fellow of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine, the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, and the American Institute of Medical and Biological Engineering.
Graduate Students
Sarah Divel
I am a PhD Candidate in Electrical Engineering conducting research on the validation and optimization of CT Perfusion scans for stroke assessment. I am originally from Bethesda, MD and I obtained my BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Notre Dame in 2014 and MS in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University in 2016. Outside of lab, you can find me running, reading, baking, or exploring the Bay Area.
