Bernard Gottschalk

Dr. Gottschalk started the nuclear physics research program at the Harvard Cyclotron Laboratory (HCL) in 1955, obtained his Ph.D. in 1962, and remained as a postdoctoral fellow until 1965. After 16 years in experimental high energy particle research, he returned to HCL (then a medical facility) in 1981 and stayed there to work on the physics of proton radiotherapy, electronics and instrumentation, until HCL closed in 2002.
