Practical and Theoretical Radiotherapy Physics Courses
Course overview
This course provides practical and theoretical education for the support of a modern radiotherapy physics service within radiotherapy.
It is aimed primarily at recently qualified radiotherapy physicists, but should also be invaluable to post-graduate students, researchers, clinical oncologists, engineers, radiographers, manufacturers’ representatives and in fact, anyone needing to deepen or update their understanding of this rapidly evolving field.
The faculty is composed of physicists, clinicians and radiographers, many of whom are internationally renowned for their expertise. Workshops and demonstrations make full use of the facilities of the Radiotherapy and Physics Departments of The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust. The course content is reviewed annually to reflect changes in practice and technology.

Researchers overcome major obstacle in targeted protein degradation
In a significant advancement, cancer researchers have found a long-sought way to overcome a critical design barrier in the generation of small-molecule chemical tools and drugs that work by targeted protein degradation.
His Majesty The King presents ICR scientists with third Queen Elizabeth Prize at St James’s Palace
Researchers from The Institute of Cancer Research, London, attended a prestigious ceremony at St James’s Palace today to mark the formal presentation of the Queen Elizabeth Prize for Higher and Further Education (previously known as the Queen’s Anniversary Prize).
New research reveals how subtle genetic differences shape neuroblastoma behaviour
Researchers have shown that subtle mutational differences in a gene called ATRX help explain why children with the same type of neuroblastoma respond differently to treatment. These findings could support precise therapy recommendations based on a stronger understanding of the disease’s underlying biology.
New study shows promise for more reliable imaging of an important tumour characteristic
A team of scientists at The Institute of Cancer Research, London, has developed a repeatable three-dimensional (3D) imaging technique that could transform preclinical cancer studies.
