Session Title:
Augmenting the Future Workforce in Radiation Oncology: Empowerment through Education & Leadership
Session Description:
Radiation Oncology (RO) is a highly subspecialized field which requires a high level of commitment and coordination among various groups of professionals including the physicians, referral providers, medical physicists, dosimetrists, nursing, and radiation therapy. To augment the future workforce, the current radiation oncologists must continue to build skills and leadership experience so that they are up-to-date with the future challenges that the clinical practice and environment will bring in 2025 and beyond.
