“The Medical Physics Department<\/strong> at Royal<\/span> Surrey<\/span> offers nationally-recognised services, from cutting-edge treatments locally through high quality contracted scientific support across a wide geographical area, to involvement in screening services and Artificial Intelligence (AI) implementation at a national level. We partner with a variety of external collaborators on high value research grants. Although the team offers a diverse range of services, they all have a common passion for applying and advancing science in a medical setting, working flexibly and collaboratively towards this goal.<\/em>\u2019“.<\/em><\/div>\n
