URGENT NEED FOR CLINICAL PLACEMENT
OF MEDICAL DOSIMETRY STUDENTS
The AAMD Formal Education Committee (FEC) has acknowledged an urgent need for clinical placement of medical dosimetry students. The FEC is asking for medical dosimetrists to talk with their clinical leaders about potential affiliation with medical dosimetry education programs. Please contact the FEC Co-Chairs, Jamie Baker or Michelle Mundis, to discuss how your clinic can help with this critical issue.
