Ashley Rose - Physics - Medical physics, BC Cancer Agency
Ashley Rose (physics) spent a co-op work term working in medical physics for the BC Cancer Agency. She assisted with a radiation therapy study.
“I was involved in the testing of new visual feedback equipment that is beginning to be used with breast cancer patients undergoing deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) radiation therapy. I learned a lot about the medical physics field, which I wouldn’t have been as exposed to in the classroom.”
