ESR 01 - Sascha Lüdeke
Short Biography
Sascha Lüdeke has graduated from the Carl von Ossietzky University in Oldenburg, Germany, in September 2017 by receiving a Master's Degree in Engineering Physics with a specialization in Medical Physics and Acoustics. During his studies he worked at the radiation therapy department at the Pius Hospital in Oldenburg. Both his Bachelor and Master's thesis were accomplished in cooperation with the European Space Agency (ESA). The subject concerned the interaction of galactic cosmic radiation with the Standard Environment RadiationMonitor (SREM) installed onboard the Rosetta mission.
Why did you apply for a RADSAGA position?
After finishing my studies, I applied for the RADSAGA ESR position at the University of Jyväskylä to further broaden my knowledge and scientific accomplishment in the field of radiation physics. The position will help me to enhance my knowledge in radiation physics and microelectronics while providing fundamental research about the correlation of direct ionization effects of high energy ions and low energy protons.
What are your future goals? How will RADSAGA help you fulfill them?
For my future, I plan to successfully contribute to the RADSAGA project as well as the radiation effects community. Then, I'll apply the skills I acquired over the course of my work with my colleagues at the University of Jyväskyla and with the RADSAGA network as well as the trainings and further educations provided by the project and by the European Union to contribute further to the advancements in the field of radiation effects on microelectronics.
