Brigitte RENIERS

Prof. Dr. Brigitte RENIERS is a full-time Professor at the Faculty of Industrial Engineering Sciences, Hasselt University, affiliated with the Nuclear Technology Research Group and the Center for Environmental Sciences. She serves as the Secretary of the Examination Board for the Master's degree in Industrial Sciences: Nuclear Technology.

• Radiation therapy (microdosimetry, proton beams, nanoparticle-enhanced techniques)
• Cancer therapy (radiobiological effectiveness, dose enhancement ratios)
• Nuclear technology (3D printed phantoms, medical imaging)
• Artificial intelligence applications in bioluminescence tomography

Her research focuses on advancing radiotherapy accuracy through diamond detector-based microdosimetry, 3D/4D radiotherapy phantoms, and AI-driven tumor reconstruction methods. She leads projects like Dose verification of basic and advanced radiotherapy techniques in Belgium (2016-2025) and Development of a 3D printed anthropomorphic dynamic phantom (2022-2026). Her teaching portfolio includes Radiotherapy and dosimetry (coordinating responsible) and Nuclear technology courses at bachelor's and master's levels.

Key collaborations include supervising doctoral candidates on topics ranging from automation in radiation therapy to nanoparticle-enhanced radiotherapy. She works closely with the Nuclear Technology Research Group and contributes to educational innovation projects like ViNuS and Active Blended Learning.
