School of Physics, Engineering and Technology Webinar Series
Join us to celebrate International Day of Medical Physics and the birthdays of trailblazing nuclear physicists, Marie Curie and Lise Meitner, with a talk on pioneering research into nuclear medicine. Dr Christian Diget, from the School of Physics, Engineering and Technology at the University of York, will introduce medical physics and some of the ways it is already routinely used within hospitals, before focussing on cutting-edge applications in both medical imaging and cancer treatment.
About the speaker
Dr Christian Diget is a lecturer at the University of York and academic lead on the Binding Blocks project, which engages young people and the public with nuclear physics. He is an experimental nuclear physicist, and his research focuses on understanding nuclear reactions in exploding stars, as well as developing new cancer therapies based on radioactive nuclear isotopes.
