PAUL MAGGI

I am currently finishing up my PhD in Physics, Medical Physics concentration from LSU in Baton Rouge, LA. My research focus is on radiation metrology, detector systems, device development, and accelerator based radiation production. I currently have two ongoing projects: the development of a real-time electron energy spectrometer for use with medical linear accelerators, and electromagnetic stimulus device development to induce targeted osmotic lysis of cancer cells.

I received my B.S. in Electrical Engineering (with a physics minor) from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, CA in 2012, with a focus on analog electronics and photonics. As an undergrad, I spent 9 months on a co-op at Apple doing hardware design, and was a student researcher with the physics department developing a cosmic ray detector. In addition, I spent a summer at CERN with the ALICE project.

When I'm not doing research, I spend time running. I'm in the process of running a marathon in every state—10 down, 40 to go. My other hobbies include reading, traveling, and visiting new restaurants.

I enjoy speaking with other fellow medical physicists, accelerator physicists, and engineers. Please feel free to email me with any questions.
