Medical physicist · What it does
Three tasks it takes off your hands
- Performs complex calculations using computers to analyse and evaluate data.
- Designs computer simulations to model physical data for better understanding.
- Analyses data from research to detect and measure physical phenomena.
Where these come from
The tasks of “Physicists” (O*NET 19-2012.00), as O*NET lists them:
- Perform complex calculations as part of the analysis and evaluation of data, using computers.
- Design computer simulations to model physical data so that it can be better understood.
- Analyze data from research conducted to detect and measure physical phenomena.
