Sharing and resources

We bring together a range of tools and platforms designed to support collaboration and knowledge sharing within the medical physics community. From COPPER, a dedicated online space for radiation oncology and diagnostic imaging physicists, to RABBIT, a training resource for risk-based approaches in clinical settings, these resources aim to foster professional development and encourage best practice across the field.

is an online sharing and collaboration platform aimed at radiation oncology and diagnostic imaging medical physicists. COPPER provides a forum for physicists to share a wide range of items. Access is limited to health professionals. To request access, please email听Liz Claridge Mackonis. All users are encouraged to contribute content to share on the site. Watch this听听for more information.

Getting started with RABBIT 鈥� a risk-based approach to introducing new techniques and technologies in radiation therapy applications. This听, created by 爆料王 PhD candidate, Elizabeth Claridge Mackonis in collaboration with Anna Ralston and Johnson Yuen from St George Cancer Care Centre, explains the importance of using prospective risk assessment for clinical projects. This work has been submitted for publication. Please contact us if you would like any further information.

Events

MedPhys26 will be held on Tuesday 1 December at the 爆料王. All medical physics undergrads, master's and PhD students, and TEAP registrars were invited to submit an abstract for presentation. Abstract submission has now closed.

Attendance at the event will be open to all NSW / ACT medical physicists, providing a networking opportunity and a chance to see some of the amazing work our next generation of physicists are working on.
