AI Foundation Model (FM) is coming to medical physics! We are pleased that the work to use FM for automated RT planning is selected as one of "the Best in Physics" at the upcoming AAPM annual meeting. Congratulations to Oscar, Sheng, and all co-authors! aapm.confex.com/aapm/2024am/me…

Congratulations to 💛💙🇺🇦Nataliya Kovalchuk, PhD 💛💙🇺🇦🌻! She was awarded the diploma of honorary professorship from the National Cancer Institute, Kyiv for her contributions to improving cancer care in Ukraine during the war.

In celebration of National Postdoc Appreciation Week (NPAW), Rad Onc celebrated our postdocs by hosting events for them, catering donuts, lunch bowls, and boba drinks! Thanks for all your hard work and dedication. We hope you had a wonderful time with us and the OPA events!

Medical Physics Rocks! Our medical physicists and dosimetrists dressed up as a rock star band this year. While the staff dressed up as PACman (Physics Admin Crew) sprites. Happy Halloween from the Medical Physics division!

Happy International Day of Medical Physics! We celebrated our clinical and research physicists' achievements and contributions to this field yesterday with great food and company. Thank you to all who embody 2024's theme of "Inspiring the Next Generation of Medical Physicists."

Ruijiang Li and his lab developed a foundation AI model that better predicts cancer prognoses and treatment responses. This work is now published in Nature and featured in the Stanford Medicine News. Read more below! med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/…

Congratulations to our postdoctoral scholar, Xiaohan Xing, for being awarded Stanford School of Medicine’s Dean’s Fellowship!

Congratulations to our newly matched residents, Megan Clark and Jeffrey Zabel! Please join us in welcoming them to the Stanford family!

A symposium on Modern Proton Therapy will be held on Stanford campus before ASTRO annual meeting in SF. Please mark your calendars for this unique opportunity; detailed program and registration website for the symposium will be made available online soon.

We're thrilled to announce that our Medical Physics PhD and Certificate Programs have been granted CAMPEP accreditation! Huge kudos to our faculty and staff for their diligent commitment in achieving this significant milestone in medical physics education. campep.org/campeplstgrad.…

Here is the URL for registration of our CME symposia. The first symposium will focus on AI Foundation Models and Agentic AI for Radiation Oncology and Healthcare. The second, held exclusively on Saturday, will cover Modern Proton Radiation Therapy app.smartsheet.com/b/form/43272b6…

Our Medical Physics Retreat was on 6/28, at Stanford Cardinal Hall! This inspiring event recharged us and discussions flowed naturally, igniting new ideas in advancing medical physics & radiation oncology. Thank you to our keynote speaker, Paul De Jean of Precision X-Ray!

Just a friendly reminder: The early registration deadline for our upcoming AI Medicine Symposium (September 26-27) and Modern Proton Therapy Symposium (September 27) is July 25. Be sure to pre-register here: app.smartsheet.com/b/form/43272b6…
