Clinical Assistant/Associate Professor Medical Physics Position at Stanford - Oakland Regional Center (Lead)

The Division of Radiation Physics in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Stanford University seeks a motivated medical physicist to join
the Division as a Clinical Assistant/Associate Professor in the Clinician Educator line. We are interested in a candidate who is ABR board
certified, has a PhD or equivalent, and a record of research in clinical medical physics. The successful candidate will join a dynamic and
supportive team, providing comprehensive clinical physics services at Stanford.

To support our expanding clinical footprint, we are
seeking a Lead Physicist to oversee physics services at our new regional center in Oakland, working alongside two physicists and two
dosimetrists, with plans for team expansion. The Lead Physicist position requires a minimum three years of experience; five years is
preferred. Managerial or supervisory experience in clinical setting is preferred. This new cancer center will offer both external beam and
brachytherapy using two Varian TrueBeams, one Varian Edge linacs equipped with surface guidance system and a Varian Bravos system for HDR
brachytherapy. The center will have a CT simulator, a PET/CT, a SPECT/CT and an MRI shared with radiology and will have an open linac vault
for future development.

The department operates a wide range of state-of-the-art equipment, including two Accuray CyberKnife
systems, one RefleXion X1, one ViewRay MRIdian, one Mevion S250Fit proton therapy platform, and three Varian TrueBeams at Palo Alto campus.
Additionally, the department has two PET/CT simulators and a 3T MRI simulator. Treatment planning systems include the Accuray Precision,
RaySearch RayStation and Varian Eclipse systems, integrated with the ARIA patient information system. The brachytherapy service (HDR and
LDR) is supported by Bravos systems with BrachyVision and Vitesse real-time planning. The department also utilizes a Mobetron IntraOp
electron accelerator. Stanford Medicine operates four satellite clinics in the Bay Area, with a total of seven Varian TrueBeams and one
Edge.

The major criterion for appointment as Clinician Educators is excellence in the overall mix of clinical care, teaching,
administrative and/or scholarship appropriate to the programmatic need the individual is expected to fulfill. The Clinician Educator (CE)
line is characterized by the primary focus on clinical care (generally, 90%). CE candidates are to show initiative and commitment in their
clinical and teaching roles. Involvement in departmental translational research initiatives is encouraged and supported. A strong sense of
initiative and a commitment to excellence in clinical practice, research, and teaching are required. Additionally, excellent verbal and
written communication skills and critical thinking are essential. In alignment with the division's clinical coverage requirements, the
candidates might be expected to provide coverage across satellite sites and all clinical groups depending on vacation, conferences or paid
development leaves.

The activities of the Division/Department are diverse and include basic science and translational research
programs in Radiation Biology, Radiation Physics, and Imaging, offering unique opportunities for the successful candidates to integrate into
these research programs. The Stanford Cancer Center Palo Alto practice has been fully accredited by ASTRO's APEx - Accreditation Program for
Excellence.
