Principal Investigator
Liyong Lin, PhD, FAAPM, DABR, is an ABR board‑certified medical physicist and a Professor of Radiation Oncology at Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University.
Dr. Lin’s expertise began with proton therapy commissioning, quality assurance, and Monte Carlo characterization of pencil beam scanning proton therapy systems for clinical and preclinical applications, including studies of radiation immune response at the University of Pennsylvania. Since joining Emory University, his research has focused on developing novel treatment optimization and delivery systems for advanced particle therapy applications, including FLASH and spatially fractionated therapies. His research interests span Monte Carlo simulation, deep learning techniques for particle microdosimetry imaging, and GPU‑accelerated optimization.
