Laura Attardi
Professor of Radiation Oncology (Radiation Biology) and of Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly Interests Our research is aimed at defining the pathways of p53-mediated apoptosis and tumor suppression, using a combination of biochemical, cell biological, and mouse genetic approaches. Our strategy is to start by generating hypotheses about p53 mechanisms of action using primary mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs), and then to test them using gene targeting technology in the mouse.

Todd F. Atwood
Clinical Assistant Professor, Radiation Oncology - Radiation Physics
Current Research and Scholarly Interests My current research is focused on evaluating and improving linac-based stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) treatment planning and delivery techniques, predicting dosimetric indices in prospective plans through automated data mining, and developing new approaches for planning and delivering prone partial breast irradiation.

Magdalena Bazalova
Instructor, Radiation Oncology - Radiation Physics
Current Research and Scholarly Interests I have been conducting research in three main areas 1) treatment planning for small animal radiotherapy, 2) x-ray fluorescence CT (XFCT) imaging for high-sensitivity molecular imaging, and 3) novel concept of radiation therapy with very high-energy electron (VHEE) beams. I am interested in dose measurements at the SLAC VHEE beamline, modeling the beamline with Monte Carlo, optimization of VHEE treatment plans and high-dose-rate radiobiology experiments.
