Dr. Jessica Rodgers joined the Department of Physics and Astronomy in 2022, following a postdoctoral fellowship in the School of Computing at Queen’s University. Using her engineering background (PhD in Biomedical Engineering (Western University, 2021) and BSc in Mathematics and Engineering (Queen’s University, 2014)), Dr. Rodgers’ research focuses on creating clinically translatable tools for the medical physics community. Her research interests are focused on ways to improve cancer treatment through computer-assisted interventions, including image guidance for radiotherapy of gynecologic and prostate cancers and navigation approaches for cancer surgeries.
