Student Experience
Jack Johnson studied MSc Medical Physics with Radiobiology in 2024/25, having developed an interest in medical physics while working in an NHS nuclear medicine department. Jack shares his experience of the course and what it's like to study at the Department of Oncology.
"It's been really interesting to get input from not only a wide number of lecturers who are experts in their fields, but also your peers who've come from an enormous range of diverse backgrounds."
Grace Frost completed her master's in Medical Physics & Radiobiology at the Department of Oncology in 2024. Since graduating, Grace has joined the Oxford Space Innovation Lab at the University of Oxford, where she is completing an internship funded by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) focused on genomics and space biology. The team are researching the value of the space environment as an accelerated ageing model. The Oxford Space Innovation Lab were the first to send organoid samples to the ISS and are now monitoring them to investigate the impact of microgravity and cosmic radiation on cells.
