PRIX DES MEILLEURS EXPOSÉS ORAUX DE L’OCPM
Les Prix des meilleurs exposés oraux sont remis chaque année à la Rencontre scientifique annuelle de l'Organisation canadienne des physiciens médicaux (OCPM). Les exposés sont jugés à la lumière de leur mérite scientifique et de la qualité de la communication. Le concours est ouvert à tous les membres et les membres étudiants de l’OCPM. Les exposés sont jugés par un comité de quatre à six membres, incluant au moins deux membres de chacune des surspécialités.
