Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHunter Ratliff is a medical physicist and nuclear engineer with a decade of experience developing and applying radiation transport simulations (MCNP, PHITS), scientific code (Python, Fortran), and advanced neutron/gamma detection and imaging for both space and clinical contexts. He has led development of the DCHAIN-PHITS activation/decay module—adding modern libraries, uncertainty propagation, and 3D mesh support—and translated legacy Fortran tools into maintainable Python, underscoring a strong commitment to reproducible scientific software. His recent work bridges prototype detector development for proton therapy range verification with hands-on experimental campaigns and AI-focused radiation transport modeling for treatment-data generation. Based in Bergen, Norway, he combines deep computational modeling with practical lab and facility coordination skills, and brings an uncommon mix of space-radiation expertise and radiotherapy-focused detector innovation.
