Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM)

Congratulations to winner of the IPEM Gold Medal Award, Dr Jack Miller!

Meet Ryan and friends and see a day in the life of a medical physicist in the NHS
Today's International Day of Medical Physics and here's just a few of the things medical physicists get up to....

Congratulations Mohamed!

Enjoy this great piece of open access research published in our journal, Physiological Measurement.
Testing just how responsive our wearable tech is by investigating how they coped with rapid changes in heart rate.

New open access research in Physics and Medicine in Biology from Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt.
Angular dependence of detector responses in high-energy brachytherapy by Thomas Failing et al.

What do you want to be when you grow up?
Did you ever think about medical physics or clinical engineering?
There are so many rewarding careers that you might never of heard of just waiting for you...

New IPEM open access article in Physiological Measurement. This paper concludes that catheter-to-tissue angles can influence the lesion outcomes significantly and the multichannel bioimpedance is able to detect the angles that matter.
