International Medical Physics Week (IMPW) in 2020 announced by the International Organization for Medical Physics

Announcing the IMPW, Prof. Madan M. Rehani, President of IOMP, said: "I am delighted to see enthusiasm of many colleagues across the world in doing their best to enhance the contribution and importance of medical physics among medical professionals and among public. We always have uphill task when it comes to creation of awareness of our role among public. It is this need that made IOMP establish International Day of Medical Physics (IDMP) earlier in 2013 and now International Medical Physics Week (IMPW) in 2020." 

2020 marks the 40th anniversary of the foundation of EFOMP. Throughout the year we will be celebrating with online events and articles.
