L. John Schreiner retired as Chief of Medical Physics at the Cancer Centre of Southeastern Ontario in 2019, and is now Professor Emeritus of Oncology and of Physics, Engineering Physics & Astronomy at Queen’s University in Kingston Ontario. He obtained his PhD investigating NMR relaxation in tissue model systems (Waterloo, 1985) and then joined McGill’s Medical Physics Unit where he initiated research in 3D dosimetry for radiation therapy quality assurance that spanned the rest of his career. His research extended to advancing Cobalt-60 teletherapy and investigating in-house end-to-end QA programs to ensure safe implementation and maintenance of clinical radiation therapy. He has served our community as newsletter editor, member of numerous COMP committees, and as CCPM board member and President. He was a founder and organizer for 12 IC3Ddose meetings. He is presently the President of Medical Physics for World Benefit (MPWB). He has supervised over 120 trainees (27MSc, 8PhD) introducing them to radiation therapy medical physics.And they enabled John to publish in ~115 peer reviewed publications. He has been invested as a Fellow of both COMP and the American Association of Physicists in Medicine.
