Read more I am an applied mathematician currently working as a Leopoldina post doc fellow in the research group Medical Physics and Technology at the department for Radiation Science and Technology, TU Delft.
My research is focused on improving radiation therapy planning by developing more efficient numerical methods and better models for uncertainty quantification. It is important to me to work on socially relevant topics in a sustainable and reproducible way. Below you can find a selection of my publications, talks and software projects.

Read moreProject together with Jonas Kusch, Steffen Schotthöfer, Jannick Wolters and Tianbai Xiao. The KiT-RT (Kinetic Transport Solver for Radiation Therapy) framework is a high-performance open source platform for radiation transport. Its main focus is on radiotherapy planning in cancer treatment. To enable problem-specific method selection, the framework provides different deterministic solver types. This not only facilitates treatment planning, but also provides tools to investigate various research questions in the field of radiative transfer. This goal is supported by an easily extendable code
Project together with Jonas Kusch. The TITUS framework offers open source solvers for time and memory efficient deterministic proton and electron dose calculations in 2D/3D. We solve the continuous slowing down approximation (CSD) to transport equations using the dynamical low rank approximation. See [1] for a detailed description of the methodology and some initial results for 2D electron transport. Functionalities of TITUS include collideduncollided splitting methods, high-order time integration, high-order spatial discretizations and GPU accelerations.
Project developed and maintained within the research group Radiotherapy Optimization at the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ). During my time as an associated member of this research group I have contributed to the project, especially to the photon Monte Carlo computations with TOPAS MC. MatRad is an open source software for radiation treatment planning of intensity-modulated photon, proton, and carbon ion therapy.
