Virtual International Day of ­Medical Physics 2025

Welcome

The image features a modern building with a clear blue sky and greenery around it. Overlaid text reads "VIRTUAL INTERNATIONAL DAY OF MEDICAL PHYSICS 2025 AT DKFZ." The setting suggests an academic or research institution related to medical physics.

On November 7th, 2025, the Division of Medical Physics in Radiation Oncology (Head: Prof. Dr. Oliver Jäkel) and the Division of Medical Physics in Radiology (Head: Prof. Dr. Mark E. Ladd) will be holding the Virtual International Day of Medical Physics 2025 at DKFZ. The event is part of the International Day of Medical Physics (IDMP), which is organized by the International Organization of Medical Physics (IOMP) on the birthday of Marie Skłodowska-Curie.

The topic for 2025 is Medical Physics and Emerging Technologies: Shaping the Next Decade. We celebrate this day with two separate online events on Zoom, scheduled from 10am to 12pm as well as from 3 to 6pm. Part 1 focuses on current research topics and technologies in the field of Medical Physics in Radiology. During the part 2 current research projects in the field of Medical Physics in Radiation Oncology will be presented. Experienced researchers and Post-Docs as well as PhD students will be contributing to each part. At the end of part 2, you can virtually visit the Heidelberg Ion-Beam Therapy Center (HIT) as well as the 3 Tesla MRI and the ETHOS Linac at DKFZ. 

More information is available on the programs (see below). Registration for free participation is now open. 

We cordially invite everyone to join us virtually via Zoom on this day to get to know our work better.

We are very much looking forward to meeting you online.
