Table Topics: Career Pathways in Medical Physics

ANCILLARYEVENT · EVW-TT03 · ID: EVW-TT03

This Table Topics session is an interactive, small-group discussion led by Jennifer Pursley, Medical Physicist at Mayo Clinic. Designed as an extended Q&A, the conversation will explore the wide range of career opportunities in medical physics across clinical practice, research, industry, and government. Participants will engage directly with Jennifer to discuss pathways in medical imaging, radiation therapy, medical technologies, and hospital-based roles, as well as training options at the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels. The informal format encourages practical questions, shared experiences, and candid advice for students and early-career scientists considering or navigating careers in medical physics.
