  • Biography

    Shahed Badiyan, M.D., is an Associate Professor of Radiation Oncology at UT Southwestern Medical Center. He is Clinical Director of Adaptive Therapy in the Department of Radiation Oncology. Certified by the American Board of Radiology (ABR), Dr. Badiyan joined UT Southwestern as faculty in 2023.

    Dr. Badiyan earned his medical degree from UT Southwestern Medical School where he graduated with Alpha Omega Alpha honors. He completed his radiation oncology residency training at Washington University School of Medicine followed by a clinical fellowship at the Paul Scherrer Institute – Swiss Federal Institute of Technology’s Center for Proton Therapy.

    In 2014, Dr. Badiyan was the recipient of the Roentgen Resident/Fellow Research Award from the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) for advancing radiological research. He has received grant funding as the principal investigator of multiple clinical trials investigating advanced radiotherapy techniques such as adaptive radiation, proton therapy, spatially fractionated radiotherapy, how to prevent radiation-induced cardiotoxicity, and how to improve the efficacy of immunotherapy with radiation. 

    Dr. Badiyan has given numerous lectures and contributed to more than 100 peer-reviewed publications and abstracts in his areas of expertise. He is currently an abstract reviewer for the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC), Particle Therapy Cooperative Group of North America (PTCOG-NA), and American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) annual meetings. He has also served as a thoracic cancers question writer for the American College of Radiology (ACR) Radiation Oncology In-Training Exam and on the ABR Gastrointestinal Cancers Qualifying Committee.
