The Center’s staff includes an interdisciplinary mix of professional scientists from fields as diverse as molecular biology, cell biology, radiation physics, computational physics, engineering and radiation oncology, performing research in experimental biophysics, cellular and microbeam studies, molecular and chromatin studies, and physics and biology related to both low dose radiation and radiation therapy-modeling. In addition to its diverse faculty, the Center features two Core facilities: Radiological Research Accelerator Facility (RARAF), a P41 facility funded by NIBIB and led by Dr. David J. Brenner. Design & Instrument Shop We also lead two large research collaborations: Center for High-Throughput Minimally-Invasive Radiation Biodosimetry, a Center for Medical Countermeasures against Radiation funded by NIAID and led by Dr. Brenner. Mechanism of Bystander Effects, an NIH program project led by Dr. Tom K. Hei.
