Ilker Meric is a professor and radiation physics specialist with eight years of focused experience in Monte Carlo radiation transport simulations, gamma-ray spectrometry, and radiation detector development. Based in Bergen, Norway, he leads the NOVO project to enable real-time dose verification in proton therapy, combining detector design, high-performance computing and inverse problem methods. He brings practical software skills in Fortran, C/C++ and Python (NumPy/SciPy) and hands-on parallel programming experience with MPI/OpenMP to accelerate CPU-intensive simulations. His work spans academic leadership—supervising PhD candidates and building the institution’s first mini HPC cluster—to industry-facing consulting in NDT and medical applications. Notably, he has implemented variance reduction strategies across MCNP, PENELOPE and FLUKA workflows to make high-fidelity particle transport feasible for clinical and industrial use.
