My lab focuses on creating tools that aid clinicians to enhance their clinical skill in order to ultimately improve patient care. Towards this goal, we specialize in the development of technologies at the interface of human-computer interaction, state-of-the-art sensors, robotic technology and computational tools. Two key research questions that our lab focuses on are 1. […]

CLEMSON, South Carolina — Radiation is a powerful weapon against some types of cancer, but using the therapy is still more like a shotgun approach than a surgical strike, shooting a tumor with large doses of broad-spectrum X-rays that damage healthy tissue and cause side effects. In a study published in the journal PLOS ONE, […]
