Dr. Teh Lin is an Associate Professor of Radiation Oncology at Fox Chase Cancer Center, Temple University, and a Fellow of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM). With nearly two decades of experience in medical physics, Dr. Lin specializes in radiation treatment planning, medical imaging, and advanced imaging system development aimed at improving cancer diagnosis and therapy.

She received her BS in Nuclear Science from National Tsing-Hua University, Taiwan, and went on to earn her MS and PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from the University of Michigan – Ann Arbor. Her early research focused on ultrahigh-intensity laser-accelerated proton beam mechanisms, where she collaborated internationally with teams at LULI, École Polytechnique (France) and JAEA, Kansai Photon Science Institute (Japan) to investigate the relationship between laser contrast and accelerated proton energy.

In her more recent work, Dr. Lin has advanced research in 4D computed tomography-based functional imaging and AI-driven radiation treatment planning, applying these innovations directly to enhance precision and personalization in cancer treatment.

At Fox Chase, Dr. Lin has held multiple roles since joining in 2005 — beginning as a Research Associate, later serving as Chief Resident during her medical physics residency, and advancing to Associate Professor in 2020. She has authored and co-authored over 130 publications, contributing significantly to the understanding of motion artifacts, proton therapy, and imaging technology.

Dr. Lin is an active member of AAPM, the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO), and the International Organization for Medical Physics (IOMP). She also serves on the editorial board of the Journal of Cancer Research and Cellular Therapeutics and is a peer reviewer for several leading journals in medical physics and radiation oncology.

Her election as a Fellow of the AAPM in 2024 recognizes her leadership, scholarship, and groundbreaking contributions to advancing cancer treatment through medical physics.
