The University of California Davis, School of Medicine, Department of Radiation Oncology is recruiting a faculty position for an Assistant/Associate Professor in the Health Sciences Clinical Professor series (HSCP), salary commensurate with experience and qualifications. Expectations of a faculty in the HSCP series are primarily clinical and include teaching, service and scholarly and/or creative activities.

Qualified candidates must have a Ph.D. in Medical Physics or related field of study pertinent to medical physics and be board eligible/certified. For the Associate level, a demonstrated ability to obtain extramural funding is highly desirable. The successful candidate will be expected to participate and/or provide significant leadership in the advanced clinical and research programs in image-guided IMRT and VMAT, SBRT, radiosurgery, brachytherapy, in vivo dosimetry, and informatics infrastructure development. The successful candidate will also be expected to teach in our medical physics courses for physician and physics residents, as well as contribute to continuing medical education efforts for our staff.

The radiation oncology department is located in the NCI Designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in Sacramento, California. We have full-member status with the NRG-Radiation Therapy Oncology Group, an ACGME accredited physician residency training program, and CAMPEP accreditation for our medical physics residency program. There are research affiliations with the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine, UC Davis Department of Biomedical Engineering, Sutter Medical Foundation, and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and potential relationships with Cancer Center Network sites.

Our downtown facility has two matched Elekta Versa linacs with Agility MLC, a TomoTherapy Radixact, and a GammaKnife ICON all managed by the Elekta Mosaiq EMR system. Treatment planning is performed with Raystation treatment planning system. Ancillary systems include SNC Suncheck, AlignRT and MIM Vista. UC Davis Cancer Center has a very active image-guided high dose rate (HDR) Brachytherapy (IGBT) suite with Samsung Neurologica Mobile CT, Elekta Flexitron afterloader, and the Oncentra brachytherapy treatment planning system treating gynecological, prostate, lung and skin sites. Our IGBT Special Procedure Suite is located within the department, and it is a substantial asset to our highly regarded brachytherapy programs that serve patients from Northern California and Nevada. The UC Davis department of Radiation Oncology clinic is committed to providing the most advanced treatment delivery and image-guided technologies.

Clinical Experience:
Board certified or eligible (ABR or CCPM) are required for this position, which includes experience in radiation therapy treatment planning and dosimetry with external beam and sealed source radioactive materials. The successful applicant will join our other faculty on the Approved List of the California Department of Public Health, Radiologic Health Branch as an individual approved to perform Radiation Shielding Design, Therapy Machine Calibrations, and Radiation Protection Surveys in accordance with California Code of Regulations, Title 17, sections 30305(a)(5), 30312(b)(4), and 30312(b)(5).

Teaching experience:
The department offers a CAMPEP accredited residency in clinical radiation therapy physics and participation in teaching within the training program is expected of all physics faculty. Each year a 50+ lecture series on radiation therapy physics is offered to medical students, residents, and fellows on a wide range of topics in medical physics in accordance with the syllabus recommended by the American Board of Radiology and CAMPEP. Lecturers include faculty from within Radiation Oncology, Radiology, Biomedical Engineering, School of Veterinary Medicine, and guest lecturers from other institutions. Written, oral, and mock exams are offered by the faculty for training purposes in addition to clinical rotations with the residents that may include participation in clinical research projects, typically involving technology development within the clinics established and emerging programs.

Research Experience:
This position is predominately clinical and teaching focused, however, there is ample opportunity for clinically applied research. The department has an NIH grant for participation in NRG Oncology clinical trials, and several of the faculty have funded research from both public and industry sources. Research opportunities within the department will be enhanced in 2025-26 with new technology including a TomoTherapy Radixact system with Synchrony real-time motion management. Clinical plans include a new Varian Edge machine to be installed for our expanding SRS-SBRT programs. .

Administrative Experience:
Effective communication skills, success in working in a collaborative environment, and demonstrated experience in adhering to policies and procedures are important aspects of this position. Experience in professional service including committees, leadership experience, and professional societies are encouraged and supported.
