Oak Ridge, Tennessee, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFahima Islam is a Neutronics Scientist with eight years of experience at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, specializing in software-driven solutions for neutron scattering instrumentation. She develops 3D-printed custom collimators for high-pressure experiments and leads super-resolution reconstruction of inelastic neutron scattering spectra from direct-geometry chopper spectrometers. With a Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering and a strong academic record, she bridges advanced simulation, experimental design, and computational reconstruction methods. Her background includes modeling neutron powder diffractometers for irradiated fuel at Idaho National Laboratory, reflecting a rare blend of hands-on instrumentation work and algorithmic development. Based in Oak Ridge, she combines deep domain expertise with practical software engineering to push the limits of neutron scattering measurement and analysis.
