Info
- Summary
I'm a nuclear physicist turned mobile engineer. I specialize in iOS development.
Though I mainly program in Objective-C, I have varying proficiencies with the following languages:
C, HTML, CSS, Javascript, Ruby (and the Rails framework), Bash, LaTeXI've written software for Firefox, Porsche, Ducati, Thrillist, JackThreads, Bulova, Fantasy Interactive, EVE Online, and many others.
My software has been published in Mashable, TechCrunch, PC World, Read Write Web, The Atlantic, New York Times, The Washington Post, Life Hacker, CNet, Switched and a few European physical publications.
On a few occasions, I've been asked to give quotes on mobile-development-related topics in TheNextWeb and Mashable.
My open-source projects can be found on Github at: http://github.com/ArtSabintsev

- May 2009 - Aug 2009Experimental Nuclear Physicist / University of Glasgow
Wrote a software-suite that was used to extract never before seen linear polarization data between hadronic interactions at the 0.7 - 2.4 GeV energy level. The results from my contribution are being used in Baryon Spectroscopy research at Jefferson Lab.
- Jun 2007 - May 2008Medical Physics Research Fellow / University of Maryland Medical Center
Wrote software in C++/MatLab that was used to extract four-dimensional lung-tumor data from inoperable patients. This data was used by medical physicists at UMMC to determine if there existed space-time points that would allow an increase in dosage distribution to improve the probability of tumor eradication during irradiation without hitting a vital organ. The data I extracted proved that most patients lung-tumors were too close to the heart during all phases of breathing. The machinery available at the time would not be able to increase the dosage for the minute time-window available without having, on average, a 29% chance of hitting the heart. My research advisors were looking for figures closer to 5%.
