Multiple Faculty Physicist positions, Radiotherapy Physics Division, Department of Medical Physics | Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
About The Position
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center has two Faculty Physicist opportunities in the Radiotherapy Physics Division of the Department of Medical Physics, at the Assistant or Associate Attending Physicist level (equivalent to Assistant or Associate Professor). Both positions support radiation oncology physics services at MSK’s Manhattan facilities and contribute to clinical research and development as part of MSK’s enterprise-wide radiotherapy physics team. One position provides routine clinical support in brachytherapy and external beam radiation therapy, and helps implement new technologies and procedures, particularly in brachytherapy. The other provides routine clinical support in external beam radiation therapy, with an emphasis on implementing new technologies and procedures in motion management and image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT). Candidates will work within a large program spanning clinical care, research, and development, with access to advanced radiation therapy equipment, imaging, and motion management resources.
Requirements
- Ph.D. in physics, medical physics, or a related field.
- Eligible for ABR certification or fully certified by the ABR or an equivalent organization.
- Strong clinical background.
- Demonstrated ability and interest in clinical research.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Nice To Haves
- Prior experience in brachytherapy, clinical software development, or machine learning, particularly for the brachytherapy-focused position.
- Experience in IGRT, motion management, and automation, particularly for the external beam-focused position.
- Interest in clinical software development and machine learning techniques in radiotherapy.
- Strong coding experience and demonstrated ability to write code for research and development.
Responsibilities
- Provide routine clinical physics support for brachytherapy and external beam radiation therapy, or for external beam radiation therapy, depending on the position.
- Implement novel technologies and procedures, with a focus on brachytherapy for one position and motion management and IGRT for the other.
- Make a significant contribution to clinical research and development activities.
- Contribute to the clinical and research mission of the enterprise-wide radiotherapy physics team.
