Medical Physicist (Part-Time)
About The Position
Dartmouth Radiation Oncology and Applied Sciences, in collaboration with the Dartmouth Cancer Center and Geisel School of Medicine, is seeking a part-time faculty medical physicist at 0.5 FTE. The successful candidate will join a team of ten physicists providing support across five affiliated clinics in New Hampshire and Vermont. On-site work in the region is preferred, though remote support may be considered. The role supports clinical, educational, and research goals and offers opportunities for teaching and research collaboration with faculty at the Cancer Center, Geisel School of Medicine, Thayer School of Engineering and its CAMPEP-accredited graduate program in medical physics, The Dartmouth Institute, and Dartmouth College. A faculty appointment at Geisel School of Medicine will be commensurate with qualifications. Leadership places a high priority on career development. The DHMC Radiation Oncology clinic in Lebanon treats approximately 1,000–1,100 patients annually, with additional services in St. Johnsbury, Vermont; Cheshire Medical Center in Keene, New Hampshire; Southwestern Vermont Medical Center in Bennington, Vermont; and Manchester, New Hampshire.

Services also include HDR brachytherapy, TBI and TSET therapy, and radionuclide treatments. Treatment planning and oncology services management use Varian ARIA and Eclipse. Treatments are delivered with active surface monitoring using VisionRT, intrafraction x-ray imaging, and Cherenkov emission imaging. The department has a history of translational research and participation in national clinical trials, graduate education and research, and an active medical physics residency program. The clinics are centered in the Upper Connecticut River Valley on the New Hampshire and Vermont border. The area is described as a vibrant academic and professional community with excellent schools, arts, and a rural setting; Boston, Burlington, and Montreal are within a few hours’ drive.
