CUMPC
Canadian Undergraduate Medical Physics Conference 2024
The Canadian Undergraduate medical physics conference (CUMPC) is a virtual conference for students pursuing medical physics related research projects and for students that are interested in learning more about this field. This free conference will focus on highlighting medical physics undergraduate research across Canada and is an excellent opportunity for students to present their research. Students will also be able to meet and interact with graduate students and leading experts in the field. It is not a requirement to be a presenter to participate in this conference, as students who would like to learn more about the field are encouraged to participate. We hope to see you there!
