Master of Science [M.S] [Physics and Biology in Medicine] From University of California

In addition, it requires interdisciplinary teams of scientists with backgrounds in:

• Biology or its subspecialties (e.g. molecular biology, etc.)
• Chemistry or its subspecialties (e.g. biochemistry, etc.)
• Physics or its subspecialties (e.g. medical physics, biophysics, etc.)
• Mathematics or its subspecialties (e.g. computational methods, simulation, etc.)
• Engineering or Computer Sciences or any of their subspecialties (e.g. biomedical engineering, nuclear engineering, etc.).

The program is primarily aimed at students who wish to pursue the Ph.D. degree and offers training in four specialties:

• Molecular Imaging (Imaging of the living chemistry of cells and tissues of the body)
• Medical Imaging (Imaging anatomy, physiology and pathology using MR, CT and other modalities)
• Therapeutic Medical Physics (Physics of radiation therapy and novel planning or delivery methods)
• Molecular and Cellular Oncology (Biological effects of radiation for both therapeutic and public protection)
