Sarah Bohndiek

Dr Sarah Elizabeth Bohndiek is a physicist whose research involves developing novel imaging approaches for early cancer detection. She is a lecturer in biomedical physics at the University of Cambridge.[1]

Education

Bohndiek received her BA in Experimental and Theoretical Physics from the University of Cambridge in 2005. She then went on to complete a PhD in Radiation Physics at University College London.[2][3]

Career and research

Following completion of her PhD in 2008, Bohndiek moved to the University of Cambridge where she worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at the Cancer Research UK Cambridge Institute.[3]

In 2011, Bohndiek took the position of Postdoctoral Scholar at Stanford University's department of radiology.[3]

In October 2013, Bohndiek returned to the University of Cambridge as a fellow of Corpus Christi College, working as a lecturer at the Cavendish Laboratory.[3]

Bohndiek actively promotes science as a career, working with the Stemettes and the Cancer Research UK Women of Influence campaign. [4] [5]

Awards and honors

Bohndiek was awarded the 2014 WISE Research Award sponsored by the Institution of Engineering and Technology and the Wellcome Trust.[6][7] This award is given for groundbreaking scientific research by a female-led team.[8]

In 2014 Sarah Bohndiek also received the Paterson medal[9], which is awarded by the Institute of Physics for early career contributions to the application of physics in an industrial or commercial context.[10] She received this award for her work in developing molecular imaging techniques, which can be applied to study the response of tissue to different cancer treatments.[11]

In 2014 Bohndiek was also awarded the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Prize for Nurturing Research Talent for to her dedication to mentoring and outreach.[12] [13]

In 2014 Bohndiek was also awarded a Suffrage Science Heirloom by the Medical Research Council. [14][15][16]
