You are cordially invited to participate in the hybrid (part online part in presence) Graduation Ceremony of the students of the 7th cycle of the Master of Advanced Studies in Medical Physics, a two-year advanced training programme in the field of medical physics, jointly organised by ICTP and the Trieste University and co-sponsored by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
The first year is spent at ICTP while the second year is dedicated to clinical professional training in a Medical Physics Department of an Italian hospital of the training network, supported by the Italian Association of Medical Physics (AIFM). The International organisation for medical physics (IOMP) has given an international accreditation to the programme.
The programme is supporting LMI countries in the development of medical physics, an applied physics sector contributing to the development, introduction and use of advanced technologies in the medical sector.
The tentative programme outline for this hybrid event is as follows:
Moderator: Luciano Bertocchi (ICTP)
Welcome remarks:
Atish Dabholkar (ICTP Director)
Hua Liu (DDG-TC, IAEA)
H.E. Ambassador, Permanent Mission of Jamaica, IAEA (to be confirmed)
Valter Sergo (Deputy Rector, Trieste University)
Deborah van der Merwe (Human Health Dept, IAEA)
Slavik Tabakov (IOMP Past President, IUPESM Vice-President)
Paddy Gilligan (EFOMP President)
Annalisa Trianni (AIFM)
Invited lecture:
"PET/CT/MRI applications: opportunities and challenges" by Professor Vesna Sossi (University of British Columbia, USA) (* abstract below).
Testimonial:
Jumaa bin Dachi (Tanzania), former MMP student
Brief remarks:
Ahmed Meghzifene (MMP External Advisor)
Renata Longo (Trieste University)
Renato Padovani (ICTP)
Anthony Scott (Jamaica), Best MMP student 2021
Lucy Arana Pena (Guatemala), Former MMP student
