JOB REQUIREMENTS: Job Summary: The Radiation Oncology Physics Section at the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Medicine and Public Health, Department of Human Oncology, is seeking a dynamic and collaborative Director of Proton Physics to lead the next generation of proton therapy. The successful candidate will provide technical clinical support and physics administrative oversight of our state-of-the-art proton therapy program. The proton program includes a Hitachi synchrotron, high-energy beam transport, intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) capability, a gantry room with 360-degree rotation, and a fixed beam room with a first-of-kind upright patient positioning system provided by Leo Cancer Care coupled with on-board dual-energy CT. Each room is equipped with high-precision patient positioning and volumetric x-ray-based image-guidance systems. Real-time image gated particle therapy via fluoroscopic image will be available in the gantry room. Siemens multi-energy CT and advanced treatment planning via RayStation are to be implemented to support high precision treatment planning and adaptive replanning. The position will focus primarily on practicing proton physics services provided at the UW Health Cancer Center, Eastpark Medical Center location, which is part of our dual-hub model located on Madison\'s east side. The 469,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility will open in Fall, 2024 and will also include two Varian TrueBeams, a Varian Edge, and an Elekta Flexitron Remote Afterloader coupled with Siemens multi-energy CT on rails. Aria record and verify systems will be fully integrated between our two major hubs. In collaboration with the Chief Physicist and departmental leadership, the Director of Proton Physics will serve in a leadership capacity to build the proton team and develop best practices to ensure high quality patient care while also contributing to proton-related clinical duties. Additional academic responsibilities, based on the candidate\'s interests and accomplishments, will include research and teaching activities in alignment with the programmatic goals of the department.
