Annual Meetings

Every year, the members of the Pennsylvania-Ohio-West Virginia Chapter of AAPM gather to share their work and learn from a variety of invited speakers covering research, clinical, professional development, and well-being topics relevant to physicists in any specialty.

Typically the third weekend of September, this meeting offers CAMPEP continuing education credits for talks from AAPM leadership, invited speakers, and proffered abstracts.

The meeting fosters collegial interaction between clinical and academic medical physicists, students, trainees, and vendors to promote collaboration and networking.  

The meeting is 1.5 days (Friday and Saturday morning) and its location changes to different cities around the POWV area.  It also features a night out for participants to interact in a more informal setting.

We have Speaker positions for proffered Abstracts. Click here to contact us.
