Great work by AAPM GRAC’s WGPVAC (Working Group on Practice in Veterans Affairs Centers), advocating for VA patients through sustained long-term efforts.
AAPM applauds introduction of bipartisan Senate legislation to relieve outdated VA medical physicist pay caps.

This step would help address staffing shortages and support veterans’ access to safe, high-quality imaging and radiation oncology care.

Kicking off SWAAPM 2026 conference with a panel discussion about the inaugural AAPM Advocacy Day last summer, real experiences from Capitol Hill and how advocacy fits into the future of medical physics.

Spent time at council row #aapm2025 volunteering at the PC booth. Hope I encouraged those interested in serving on a committee to take the jump! If you believe medical physicists have tremendous value benefiting ALL patients, join my MedPhys3.0 grassroots group! forms.gle/1XEtCtiFiAcx...

Haven’t been to an annual meeting in years but glad to be here tonight because it’s full of well-deserved recognition. Seeing friends awarded AAPM Fellowship in medical physics is enough reason for me attending the meeting! Huge congratulations to all of this year’s Fellows and awardees! #aapm2025

Professional symposium notes on providing & demonstrating value:

(1) By being open to change & not “do it this way, because that’s always how it’s been done”,

(2) We cannot allow the indulgence of "I don't know how it works, so I will check everything". Be a scientist & figure out how it works.
