The Canadian Organization of Medical Physicists (COMP) is the main professional body for medical physicists practicing in Canada. COMP’s mission is to champion medical physicists’ leadership in patient care through education, innovation and advocacy. The membership is composed of graduate students in medical physics programs, post-doctoral fellows, as well as professional physicists, scientists, and academics located at universities, hospitals, cancer centres, and government research facilities such as the National Research Council. Every member has an educational or professional background in physics or engineering as it applies to medicine. The COMP Student Council facilitates student activities within COMP by arranging professional and social events for students at our annual meeting and promoting networking opportunities for upcoming graduates. COMP invites and encourages all graduate students in medical physics programs in Canada to become a member.
