The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) is a scientific, educational, and professional organization of Medical Physicists.[1] In 2011, it absorbed the American College of Medical Physics.[2][3]
The purposes of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine are to promote the application of physics to medicine and biology and to encourage interest and training in medical physics and related fields. AAPM has established Medical Physics as its primary scientific and informational journal.
Regional chapters of the AAPM hold regular scientific meetings for their members. For example the New England Chapter typically meets three times per year. More information for the NEAAPM can be found at [1] .
