Offre d'emploi alléchante!

Aujourd'hui, Prof. Johns, le directeur du département de physique, nous a fait parvenir une offre d'emploi de l'Ottawa Hospital Cancer Centre. En fait, c'est pas vraiment un emploi, c'est un programme de résidence, donc c'est de la formation payée pour éventuellement pouvoir occuper un vrai poste. Bref. Voici la description.

MEDICAL PHYSICS RESIDENT

The Ottawa Hospital Cancer Centre

The Ottawa Hospital Cancer Centre has an immediate opening for a Medical Physics Resident. The successful applicant will receive hands-on training over two years covering all aspects of clinical physics related to radiation oncology including radiation dosimetry, external beam treatment planning, brachytherapy, stereotactic radiosurgery and quality assurance of all radiation therapy equipment. At the completion of the program the resident will have the knowledge and experience required to apply for clinical certification. This program is currently being considered for CAMPEP accreditation.

The Ottawa Hospital is one of the largest academic hospitals in Canada with over 10,000 health care staff. The Cancer Centre serves a population of approximately 1.2 million people and treats more than 4000 patients with radiation therapy per year. Current equipment includes a tomotherapy unit, 8 linear accelerators, 2 with kilovoltage imaging, 2 CT simulators and a PET CT scanner. The centre supports active clinical programs in IGRT, IMRT, stereotactic radiosurgery and brachytherapy. In addition, the centre has just commissioned a new state-of-the-art external beam treatment planning system and has extensive electronic and machine shop facilities and support.

The preferred entry requirement is a Ph.D. in Physics or a related subject and the minimum entry requirement is an M.Sc. in Medical Physics. Candidates should also have good verbal and written communication skills, basic knowledge in radiation physics is preferred, demonstrated research ability and a strong interest in working with a multi-disciplinary medical team.

The Centre offers a competitive salary and benefits package during the training program and the opportunity to contribute to a dynamic medical physics team.

Je crois que c'est exactement ça que je veux faire après mon doctorat. J'ai encore le temps de changer d'idée, mais si j'avais mon Ph.D. en poche, j'appliquerais tout de suite!
