Greeshma Agasthya is an Assistant Professor at the Nuclear & Radiological Engineering and Medical Physics Program within the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology. She leads the Computational Medical Physics Laboratory and holds an adjunct appointment in the Radiation Oncology Department at Emory University.
- Doctorate in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University
- Postdoctoral training at Emory University's Winship Cancer Institute
Her research focuses on multiscale digital twins for personalized radiation dosimetry, AI frameworks for cancer surveillance, and computational modeling of radiation protocols. Key areas include:
- Radiation dosimetry for imaging, therapy, and theranostics
- Medical imaging systems (neutron imaging, CT, tomosynthesis)
- Machine learning for clinical decision support
- Interdisciplinary collaboration across medical physics, radiology, and computer engineering
Recent publications highlight her work on:
- Machine learning models for pediatric anxiety detection
- Temporal semantic drift in clinical terminology
- Dosimetric impacts of radiopharmaceutical extravasation
- Environmental exposure analysis for lung cancer risk
- Chromosome conformation-based radiosensitivity modeling
She secured a DOE-BER grant for "Bridging the gap between low dose exposures and emergent physiology" and co-founded a Woodruff Innovation Nexus seed grant for multi organ-on-a-chip development in radiopharmaceutical therapy.
