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.

Why men fare worse in acute myeloid leukaemia: new study rules out hormone signalling
New research has ruled out hormone signalling as the reason why men with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) tend to have poorer outcomes than women, even when treated with the same intensive chemotherapy – a finding that helps refine future research and could influence clinical trial design.
Embracing mathematics is key to illuminating cancer cell evolution
A new review explains how turning to mathematics is helping researchers decode one of cancer’s most elusive traits: its ability to evolve and adapt.
New combination treatment could overcome immunotherapy resistance in difficult-to-treat cancers
A pioneering clinical trial has demonstrated for the first time that two existing treatments can be combined to potentially improve outcomes for sarcoma and melanoma patients with advanced tumours in their limbs.
