Dr Sarah Gulliford

Dr Sarah Gulliford completed her PhD Thesis entitled ‘Artificial Neural Networks applied to Radiotherapy’ in 2003 at the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR).  After completing her Clinical Scientist HCPC registration whilst working at Ipswich Hospital, she returned to the ICR as a Post-Doc.  Her principal area of research is the response of normal tissues to radiotherapy.  Studies include dosimetric analysis of clinical trials, representing the spatial characteristics of dose to organs at risk and considering dosimetric changes from on-treatment imaging. Dr Gulliford joined the Proton Beam Therapy (PBT) physics team at University College London Hospital in 2018, helping to commission the PBT centre.  She is currently the lead for PBT Treatment Planning and an Associate Professor at University College London.
