Nathaniel Braman, a PhD student and researcher in the Center for Computational Imaging and Personalized Diagnostics (CCIPD), was awarded the Terry M. Speth Service Professional Memorial Scholarship for Diagnostic Imaging Research.
Braman conducts research in the area of breast cancer imaging analytics. His current work focuses on the prediction of genetic subtype and chemotherapy response of breast tumors from textural features on dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI. Anant Madabhushi, the F. Alex Nason professor II of biomedical engineering and director of CCIPD, mentors Braman in these projects.
Each year, the Terry M. Speth Service Professional Memorial Scholarship provides funding to graduate and undergraduate students pursuing advanced training and research in diagnostic imaging.
