Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Santanu Samanta's research focuses on the application of radiation oncology and related treatment modalities for various cancers. His work includes investigating biomarkers for radiation resistance in lung cancer and assessing the dose distribution of radiation dermatitis in head and neck cancers. Samanta has also explored outcomes of different conditioning regimens for allogeneic stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic diseases and examined spatially fractionated radiation therapy for head and neck malignancies. Additionally, his research interests extend to the use of virtual reality technology for brachytherapy training and delivery. Samanta has published 69 papers, with an h-index of 14 and a total of 666 citations. He collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Gary D. Lewis, R.J. Megahed, Mausam Patel, and Richard L. Crownover.
