• Description: The policy statements describing the role of the biomedical physicist (and engineer) published by organisations representing biomedical physicists in Europe include the responsibility of contributing to the education of healthcare professionals.

The EFOMP special interest group "Biomedical physics education for the Healthcare Professions" has been conductiing research aimed at producing a development model for this increasingly important subrole of the biomedical physicist.
