A 1-2 year fellowship in radiation Oncology is available at the Division of Radiation Oncology, Department of Oncology, McMaster University. The primary objective of this fellowship is to provide clinical training and research opportunities in technological and biological advances in lung and prostate radiotherapy.
The successful candidates will work clinically with and study applications of IMRT, VMAT or Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for the treatment of lung and prostate cancer and will have the opportunities to participate in translational – early phase clinical trial and biomarker research in radiotherapy. Formal training can be provided in principles and methods of scientific research in the areas of, i) clinical trial design or ii) translational radiation biology studies, including early phase trials with novel sensitizing agent and biomarker studies.
