Training in Australia
The Australasian College of Physical Scientists and Engineers in Medicine (ACPSEM) is responsible for the certification of Medical Physicists in Australia and New Zealand through the Training Education and Assessment Program (TEAP). One requirement of TEAP certification is the completion…

X Forwarding with Cygwin
I used the EGSnrc/BEAMnrc/DOSXYZnrc Monte Carlo simulation codes during my doctoral and post-doctoral work at QUT. This involved the use of QUT’s High Performance Computing (HPC) facilities. I’ve previously written about setting up EGSnrc on that system here. A number…
EGSnrc on QUT HPC
High performance computing (HPC) facilities are very useful for Monte Carlo simulations – the simulation of particle transport is an application ideal for parallel processing. This post details discusses how the HPC facilities at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT)…
