About
Marcel Fang is a pioneering radiation oncologist whose work is reshaping the landscape of proton therapy, with a particular focus on treating complex head and neck and brain malignancies. His research centers on the clinical translation of upright, image-guided proton therapy—a paradigm shift that leverages vertical CT systems and fixed beamlines to enhance patient access and treatment precision. In his landmark 2025 prospective clinical trial, Fang demonstrated the feasibility and safety of this novel approach for locally recurrent tumors, achieving a critical milestone in gantry-less proton therapy. While still early in its citation impact, this work has already garnered significant attention for its potential to reduce treatment costs and improve patient comfort. Fang’s contributions are foundational to the emerging field of upright radiotherapy, positioning him as a key figure in the next generation of cancer care innovations. His dedication to clinical translation and patient-centered technology marks him as a rising leader in radiation oncology.
