Happy International Day of Medical Physics 2021 ⚛️

Happy International Day of Medical Physics (IDMP) to us all.

This is the day set aside to celebrate ourselves and the outstanding contributions physicists have made to medicine.

The day Marie Curie, a two time Nobel Laureate who discovered radioactivity, was born.

Watch out for the next laureate from Africa 🤞🏽
