Carlos E. Cardenas, Ph.D., associate professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology, has been named the 2025 recipient of the McMaster University Emerging Science Co-op Employer of the Year Award. This award recognizes employers and supervisors who act as mentors for co-op students and provide a rich and fulfilling learning experience.
Udbhav Ram, an international scholar from McMaster University, recently joined Carlos E. Cardenas, Ph.D., in his lab to study and research.
As part of our international collaborative partnership with McMaster, Udbhav has worked with Cardenas since 2021—first through a remote collaboration, then on Heersink School of Medicine’s Birmingham campus from January to August 2024.
Together, their projects investigate how artificial intelligence tools can advance radiation treatment and planning.
