The Stanford Biomedical Physics (BMP) PhD Program is now accepting applications!

The BMP Program is a PhD training program hosted by the Departments of Radiology and Radiation Oncology within the Stanford University School of Medicine. The objective of the PhD in BMP is to train students in research focused on technology translatable to clinical medicine, including radiation therapy, image-guided therapy, diagnostic, interventional, and molecular imaging, and disease detection and characterization with molecular diagnostics.

Thanks to the efforts of faculty in these departments and the support of department chairs Dr. Quynh Le and the late Dr. Sam Gambhir, we created the BMP program in 2021 to train doctoral students within the world-class research environment at Stanford.

In fall 2023 we are soliciting applications for our third class of incoming students. The deadline for new applicants isDecember 1, 2023. Admitted students will begin their doctoral studies in fall 2024 taking courses spanning traditional and emerging topics in medical physics as well as performing original research under the mentorship of experts in this evolving discipline. This is the first PhD program at Stanford housed in clinical departments and students will be immersed in a unique translational environment at the intersection of basic and clinical science.

We hope this program will be of interest to your university, we have attached a flyer with a summary of the program for you to share with your students. We are looking for talented and motivated students completing or having completed a bachelor’s degree in engineering or physical science. We believe you have many qualified and potentially interested students at your institution and would appreciate your help in spreading the word about Stanford BMP.
