Thank you U-Michigan Rad Onc Residents for this award. You have a bright future ahead. UMich Rad Onc was, is, and will continue to be a great place to train.

UMich Rad Onc is hiring! We have positions in both GU and Breast and are looking for enthusiastic candidates to apply and join an amazing team of clinicians, physicists, and biologists! #GoBlue. #theteam ARRO ASTRO ACRO - American College of Radiation Oncology


One of best parts of RadOnc is the collaborative team work moving the field forward. The power of physician-physicist partnerships can’t be understated. & while you don’t have to marry them for it to work, Robert Dess Kathryn Masi Dess Alex Price & I think it’s a solid method 🤣
