WHEN: Friday December 13th from 11.00 am (Italian time)
Dear all,
You are cordially invited to participate in the Graduation
Ceremony of the students (10th cycle) concluding their Master
of Advanced Studies in Medical Physics (MMP), a two-year
advanced training programme in the field of medical physics,
jointly organised by the ICTP and the University of Trieste
and co-sponsored by the International Atomic Energy Agency
(IAEA). The first year is spent at the 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 MMP is supporting LMI
countries in the development of medical physics, an applied
physics sector contributing to the introduction and use of
advanced technologies in the medical sector.
