What are the responsibilities and job description for the Postdoctoral Fellowship position at Physics World?
Job Details
The Department of Oncology’s mission is to improve cancer care through research and teaching. We employ multidisciplinary approaches from physics, biology, chemistry and mathematical modelling to investigate this. The department offers an established, world-leading, graduate training programme.
Why study with us
The MSc in medical physics with radiobiology is a one-year, full-time course delivered by world-leading academics and clinical scientists. The main aim of this course is to discuss how ionizing and non-ionizing radiation are used in clinical practice, both in the context of radiotherapy and medical imaging. This is combined with principles of radiobiology at molecular and cellular level, to give graduates a better understanding of the effects of radiation than is achieved in other medical physics courses. The course is accredited by the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM).
Training and development
You will take eight compulsory modules, which are delivered in two-week blocks, following on from each other:
This course is designed for individuals interested in careers in medical physics from either a clinical or academic research perspective, or in professions that require a knowledge of medical physics, such as radiation protection.
What We Are Looking For
As a minimum, applicants should hold or be predicted to achieve a first-class or strong upper second-class undergraduate degree with honours (or equivalent international qualifications) in physics or a closely related subject.
