About
Research-focused Master’s student in Medical Physics at IIT Hyderabad with a strong interest in computational oncology, tumour dynamics, and mathematical modelling of cancer. My current research focuses on developing phenotype-based mathematical models of tumour regression during radiotherapy, integrating longitudinal imaging data, statistical analysis to investigate heterogeneity in treatment response and identify potential adaptive replanning windows. I have experience in quantitative data analysis, mathematical model development and evaluation, correlation analysis, and medical image assessment using MATLAB and 3D Slicer, along with exposure to clinical radiotherapy workflows.
Motivated by the potential of mathematical and data-driven approaches to improve the understanding of tumour evolution and treatment response, I aim to contribute to translational cancer research at the interface of biology, computation, and clinical oncology.
Experience
Master’s Thesis - Basawatarkam Indo American Cancer Hospital and Research Institute
(2025-07 - 2026-07)
Title: Phenotype-Based Mathematical Modelling of Tumour regression Dynamics
- Developed a phenotype-based mathematical model to characterize tumour regression dynamics during radiotherapy in rectal cancer patients.
- Analysed longitudinal imaging and tumour volume data to identify distinct response phenotypes and quantify treatment heterogeneity.
- Performed statistical correlation studies to determine the pattern of early tumour regression kinetics. Implemented data analysis and modelling workflows in MATLAB
- Investigated the potential of phenotype-specific modelling to support adaptive radiotherapy decision-making and personalized treatment strategies.

- Conducted a literature review on low-dose CT screening for lung cancer, focusing on implementation challenges and screening effectiveness.
- Contributed to the development of a workflow framework for population-based screening with emphasis on high-risk groups. Observed protocol optimization strategies for low-dose CT imaging using different tube current and voltage settings.
- Evaluated factors influencing early cancer detection, risk stratification, and screening programme feasibility.
- Gained insight into the role of quantitative decision-making and imaging optimization in oncology care.
