Sagada Peñano
Matriculation Year 2022: B.S. in Physics, Stanford University (2022)
Advisor: Timothy Carroll

I joined the Medical Physics program in 2022 after graduating from Stanford with a B.S. in physics and minors in computer science and music. Currently, I research methods for quantitative magnetic resonance imaging under Dr. Timothy Carroll. More specifically, I am investigating ways to use physics-informed neural networks to measure blood perfusion and permeability of tumors.

Outside of research, I am passionate about youth education and diversity in STEM. I enjoy volunteering as a tutor in the community and helping plan outreach events with the DEI committee. In my free time, I like to skateboard, boulder, lift weights, and play bassoon with the University Symphony Orchestra.
