Dear Student, Resident, and Junior AAPM members:

MedPhys Slam is a research communication competition in which participants prepare a three-minute presentation aimed at sharing the significance of their science in a compelling yet understandable manner. Participants will be judged on three equally weighted categories: comprehension/content, communication, and engagement. Not only will this be of interest to those within medical physics, it can be expanded as an AAPM media initiative aimed at communicating what we do to the public. Presentations will be recorded and can be posted on social media outlets like FaceBook and a dedicated YouTube Channel.

These 3-minute presentations are very fun and a great way to practice presenting your research to a non-physicist audience.  We encourage all interested students to begin preparing their talk and submit the title of your presentation to info@powvaapm.org.
