Medical physics CV and experience

A medical physics CV should make scientific and clinical relevance easy to see. Lab work, programming, imaging, radiation safety, quality assurance, patient-facing volunteering and NHS exposure can all matter, but only if the evidence is clear.

Useful examples usually show what you did, why it mattered, what constraint existed and what changed as a result. Avoid listing software, placements or modules without explaining relevance.

Evidence that helps

  • Measurement, calibration or QA work.
  • Programming or data analysis with a clear outcome.
  • Clinical exposure or patient-facing volunteering.
  • Research that required judgement under uncertainty.

How to write it

  • Use active examples.
  • Make the constraint visible.
  • Connect technical work to safety, service or patient value.
  • Check the current person specification before tailoring.
