We are currently a member of the Indonesian Alliance of Medical Physics Educational Institutions (Aliansi Institusi Pendidikan Fisika Medis Indonesia, AIPFMI) and are actively involved in determining schemes for Medical Physics education and training in Indonesia. Our staff members are members of the Indonesian Association of Physicists in Medicine and American Association of Physicists in Medicine, allowing ease of access to national and international networking as well as scientific literatures. Our counterparts/stakeholders include the Indonesian Nuclear Energy Agency, the Indonesian Nuclear Energy Regulatory Agency, and the Ministry of Health. In research, we are in collaboration with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) under TC and CRP projects, Heidelberg University for research in Radiation Oncology Physics, and Katholieke Universiteit Leuven for research in Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology Physics. At home, access for research and education is wide-open under formal collaboration schemes with leading healthcare facilities including dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo National Reference Hospital, the National Cancer Center (“Dharmais” Cancer Hospital), Pasar Minggu General Regional Hospital, and Siloam Hospitals Group (MRCCC and TB Simatupang hospitals).

Beside scientific and academic, our group provides professional Medical Physics related services. It operates under Medical Physics and Biophysics Laboratory (Center for Medical Physics and Biophysics Lembaga Sains Terapan FMIPA UI) and covers professional trainings, expertise consultancy, radiation shielding designs for medical facilities, and medical devices testing. Dedicated additional staff members are involved in providing professional services. Click here for detailed information or contact LFMB@sci.ui.ac.id for specific inquiries.
