Bio

Marc joined DNNG in July 2012 after completing his undergraduate studies at the University of Massachusetts Lowell. As an undergrad, he spent two summers interning with the Radiation Effects & Nuclear Detection division of Raytheon IDS. Marc’s current research is focused on characterizing the performance of silicon photomultipliers coupled to organic scintillators and comparing their capabilities to PMT-based systems. Additionally, he is developing a radiation portal monitor based on organic liquid scintillators. Marc is a recipient of the Nuclear Nonproliferation International Safeguards Graduate Fellowship.
