ESMPE European School for Medical Physics Experts
School for Radiation Biology
19th-21st February 2026, Porto, Portugal
EFOMP in collaboration with the Portuguese association for Medical Physics (APFISMED) would like to invite you to the next ESMPE on 19th-21st February 2026. The school will provide an overview of radiation biology, from the basics models to the clinically applied models such as the LQM. In addition, the course reviews the impact of oxygen in radiation therapy of tissues/cells. This one-day event will be accredited by EBAMP (European Board of Accreditation for Medical Physics) as CPD event for Medical Physicists at EQF Level 8 and is intended for practicing clinical Medical Physicists who are involved in Radiotherapy.
This two-and-half day event will be accredited by EBAMP (European Board of Accreditation for Medical Physics) and is intended for practicing clinical Medical Physicists who are involved or interested in diagnostic and interventional radiology. There will be an optional examination at the end for those seeking a higher level of certification beyond attendance.
ESMPE have decided this event will be in a hybrid format. All lecturers will give their talks on-site in Porto, Portugal, but participants can choose if they want to attend the school on-site or online, it will be livestreamed.
Please note: All times shown are in GMT Portugal is one hour behind CET

The Hellenic Association of Medical Physics (HAMP) and the Medical Physics Unit of the 2nd Dept. of Radiology, Medical School, National and Kapodistrian, University of Athens would like to invite you to an online workshop in non ionizing and ionizing radiation against COVID-19. The workshop will be organized as a 3 hours virtual meeting and will be held on 9th July 2021, 16:30-19:50 CEST. It aims at presenting the main aspects regarding the use of ionising and non ionising radiations against SARS CoV2 and Covid19. Specifically, the workshop includes an introductory session on SARS cov2, followed by a session on the use of non ionizing radiation for protection purposes against the coronavirus. The third session focuses on the use of ionizing radiation for diagnostic and treatment purposes in the fight against Covid19. This one-day event is accredited by EBAMP (European Board of Accreditation for Medical Physics) as a CPD event for Medical Physicists at EQF Level 7 and awarded 11 CPD credit points.
