Save the date! 2027SWAAPM in Little Rock, Arkansas!

@ArjitB_medphys Thats a good idea! I haven’t thought of one yet. TBD.

Starting at a new facility, UT Health in the Rio Grande Valley! Here’s to another chapter!

@GrulkeLamonte I started new email accounts every few years and just let things go. Out of sight, out of mind is a curse and a blessing depending what it is.

Arkansas sunset.

New to 2026 at Central High, those buildings to the left of the football stadium are new additions. Originally, this entire area was a Little Rock city park with trolley services. #History #Arkansas #LittleRock

Our local AAPM chapter spans Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma so brainstorming group names for a new mini-GRAC group focused on sharing state radiation control & regulation updates.

Early favorites for the name so far:
1) ALTO
2) Arklatexoma

Might use both for fun 😂

I really enjoy being able to work remotely. But I have to mention how grateful I am for IT and the amount of work they have to do to set everything up and know how/what to troubleshoot when connections aren’t working!

[Bobby Mathews @Bobby__Mathews]

Enjoyed listening to Leland speak on this panel. Having experience working directly with legislators to correct unintended consequences is invaluable, and it added much depth to the advocacy panel discussion!

[Leland Page @LelandPagePhD]

I had a great time at @swaapm #swaapm26 meeting this last weekend. Lots of great sessions! I was honored to be on an advocacy panel sharing my experiences from @TxRadSociety and @RadiologyACR legislative efforts and encouraging fellow physicists to get involved.

[Bobby Mathews @Bobby__Mathews]

@LelandPagePhD @swaapm @TxRadSociety @RadiologyACR You delivered with so much information and experience. Thank you for being our go-to person for how the TX legislature works. I enjoyed listening and learning in that panel discussion.

ASTRO & AAPM endorsed legislation introduced in US Senate

ASTRO applauds the leadership of AAPM on behalf of our members with the introduction of the bipartisan Department of Veteran Affairs Therapeutic Medical Physicist Pay Cap Relief Act of 2026. @aapmHQ

Thank you to Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) & Senator John Boozman (R-AR) for your sponsorship. @SenTimKaine @JohnBoozman

Arkansas in the news with Senator Boozman supporting the VA Medical Physicist Pay Cap Relief Act! Here’s our group visiting his office during AAPM Advocacy Day. What a great experience tagging along with this group to see Advocacy in action.

@mmahesh1 Remarkable to see so many countries with 0. And the countries with 1, that’s a lot riding on the reliability of the sole unit.

[Bobby Mathews @Bobby__Mathews]

That time of year that medical physicists in our region get together for CE credits.

[SWAAPM @swaapm]

Join us in Texas for the 2026 SWAAPM Annual Meeting followed by a Theranostics workshop! (14.76 MPCEC!)

Looking forward to seeing the membership come together to highlight our region of medical physicists!

Kicking off SWAAPM 2026 conference with a panel discussion about the inaugural AAPM Advocacy Day last summer, real experiences from Capitol Hill and how advocacy fits into the future of medical physics.

“Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.” -NDT

And medical physicists are the bridge to safe, reliable patient-centered care.

Finished w/ the 2026 Southwest Chapter Mock Exam! Enjoyed paying it forward to help support the next group coming up behind us.

Huge thanks to all the examiners who volunteered their time!

Smart medicine podcast with guest speaker Dr Samei explaining Medphys 3.0 and why it matters, plus a lot more! Worth the listen: https://t.co/n0p7LUoJ2f…
