Senior🎓
Top SchoolNicholas Perkons is an Integrated Interventional Radiology resident at Duke University with 14 years of scientific and clinical experience bridging engineering, imaging, and oncology. He completed an MD-PhD in Bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania, where his thesis in the Penn Image Guided Interventions Lab advanced molecular and hyperpolarized MR approaches to characterize heterogeneity in hepatocellular carcinoma. At Duke he studies locoregional treatments for gastrointestinal malignancies and pursues novel Interventional Oncology techniques that translate imaging biomarkers into procedural decision-making. His background blends hands-on engineering internships and teaching at Harvard with projects ranging from DNA origami to EEG-based fatigue detection, reflecting atypical technical breadth for a clinician-scientist. Colleagues describe him as someone who navigates both bench-to-bedside research and procedural innovation, bringing quantitative rigor to clinical problem-solving. Based in Durham, NC, he is actively shaping image-guided therapies that personalize oncologic interventions.
