About
Matthew A. Rodrigues is a leading researcher in radiation biodosimetry and high-throughput biomedical imaging, with a primary focus on developing automated systems for rapid, large-scale biological dosimetry. His most notable contribution is the integration of imaging flow cytometry with high-throughput robotics to automate the cytokinesis-block micronucleus (CBMN) assay—a fully validated but traditionally labor-intensive method for assessing radiation exposure. By replacing manual microscopy with automated, high-speed analysis, Rodrigues’ work directly addresses the critical bottleneck in triage after a radiological or nuclear event, enabling faster, more scalable responses. His flagship paper on this topic has garnered 54 citations, reflecting its impact on both biodosimetry and emergency preparedness. Rodrigues’ innovations bridge engineering, cell biology, and public health, offering practical solutions for mass casualty scenarios. His research continues to shape the future of automated radiation biodosimetry, making him a key figure in advancing high-throughput, robotics-driven cytogenetic analysis for real-world applications.
