Bernard Jones

Bernard Jones, PhD, is an Associate Professor at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, specializing in Radiation Oncology. His research focuses on improving radiation therapy through advanced imaging and motion management.

• PhD in Medical Physics from Georgia Institute of Technology (2011)
• Board Certified in Therapeutic Medical Physics (2017)

Research Interests: Addressing tumor motion during ablative radiotherapy (e.g., pancreatic/liver SBRT) using "Big Data" approaches to model motion and kV imaging for real-time tracking/correction.

Publications (15 most recent) demonstrate expertise in

• 4DCT-ventilation functional avoidance
• SBRT dose optimization
• Fiducial marker tracking
• Machine learning in radiation planning
• Cardiac/PET imaging for toxicity prediction
• Clinical trial design in oncology

Honors:

• Boettcher Investigator (2016)

Collaborations include prominent researchers like Brian Kavanagh, Sana Karam, Moyed Miften, and Yevgeniy Vinogradskiy. His work bridges radiation physics, clinical oncology, and data science, with applications in lung, pancreatic, and liver cancers.
