National symposium on Medical Physics held at Ziauddin University

"When you think about physics you must always go back into the history. If you go back 3,000 years BC, the concept of energy came from the Egyptian history. From astronomy to philosophy and to emergence over centuries towards physics, which we recall as a science of energy and matter. We have used this energy through various sources, we have harness in different types of machines so for many reasons, it's all about getting physics energy and give the energy to others", said Dr Asim Hussain, Chancellor, Ziauddin University. He was addressing the audience at "2nd Annual National Symposium on International Day of Medical Physics".

While motivating the young scientist he said "you are a group of people who have more intellectual level, who have more brains than common people because you can think better. Maybe we have failed this country individually but collectively we must try and do whatever we can do and build this country block by block. We shouldn't forget that we have got this country with great difficulty and to maintain this country, its boundaries, its frontier it is imperative for our nation's growth and for the sake of the country we have to work hard".

"Our country is passing through a difficult time we are in an era globally, where there are a lot of changes. Fundamentalism is griping in different forms whenever situation is like this, it always leads to some kind of fundamentalism. We have to be rational in our approach, we have to be thinkers", he added.

With the help of interactive presentation comprising of information on the topic of Professional Development and Higher Education Opportunities for Medical Physics Professionals in Pakistan, Shahbaz Ahmed Chugtai, Karmanos Cancer Institute, USA, said that main objective of this talk is to present the continuing professional development and higher education opportunities for Pakistani medical physics professionals. Our aim is to discuss the challenges faced by them while interacting internationally. This session will be greatly helpful for early and mid-career professional in clinical medical physics."-PR
