AAPMStatement on the Ukraine Crisis
- The American Association of Physicists in Medicine condemns the invasion of Ukraine and its destructive impact. AAPM stands in support of the Ukrainian medical physics community, their families, and their institutions that provide research, education and clinical care. We support the provision and restoration of medical services for those who have cancer, illnesses and injuries. We support actions that promote and seek to emplaceuniversal human rights and freedomsand call for a resolute and peaceful end to all hostilities.
COVID-19 Update
- AAPMcurrently allows in-person meetings and AAPM-funded travel for those fully vaccinated, with the understanding that individuals may participate virtually if they do not feel comfortable traveling. Meetings at AAPM HQ must follow guidelines established by EXCOM as appropriate to circumstances at the time of the meeting.

AAPM是一个科学和专业组织, founded in 1958, composed of more than 8000 scientists whose clinical practice is dedicated to ensuring accuracy, safety and quality in the use of radiation in medical procedures such as medical imaging and radiation therapy. We are generally known as medical physicists and are uniquely positioned across medical specialties due to our responsibility to connect the physician to the patient through the use of radiation producing technology in both diagnosing and treating people. The responsibility of the medical physicist is to assure that the radiation prescribed in imaging and radiation therapy is delivered accurately and safely.
One of the primary goals of AAPM is the identification and implementation of improvements in patient safety for the medical use of radiation in imaging and radiation therapy.

Call for Mentors to participate in the launch of the AAPM Mentorship Program!The AAPM Mentorship Program is actively recruiting volunteers from all disciplines, work environments and education levels to serve as mentors to other AAPM members. Mentorship is 1 on 1, virtual or in person, and will address mentee-defined development goals across any and all aspects of medical physics practice (scientific, educational, professional, industry, regulatory and so much more). Mentorship duration is for as long as mutually agreeable between participants but can be ended by either party for any reason. Come share your experience and wisdom and help fellow AAPM members reach their full potential! The Program is currently recruiting mentors at this stage of the launch and will open to mentee sign-ups once mentor recruitment goals have been achieved. More details including an FAQ and sign up can befound here.[general | posted: 2022-03-27 | sunset: 2022-04-20]
