For a few years I was a member of the NA35 experiment at CERN. The aim of this experiment was the study of properties of the quark gluon plasma possibly formed in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions.

After this I was involved in software development for 3D ultrasound visualization at the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics in Germany . The result was a 3D ultrasound system that is now commercially available. I was involved also in the use of deterministic and evolutionary multiobjective optimization algorithms for optimization problems in medical physics and computational geometry issues and their application in radiotherapy treatment planning systems. The results of this study and the methods developed are now implemented in a commercial planning system for brachytherapy from a company that controls a significant fraction of the market in this field. Medical Statistics is currently another new topic of interest. The first publication in this field is about a methodology for lognormal modelling of malignant pleural mesothelioma survival time distributions: a study of 5580 case histories from Europe and USA which is the largest number of patients ever considered. The hope is that new treatment methods can improve the survival time of mesothelioma patients. The study provides a basis for testing new treatment methods and drugs.
