This Expert Lecture series features presentations by Dr. Agnis Triahadini, a postdoctoral researcher at the National Research Agency, on the topic of volcanic monitoring using the geophysical method of magnetotellurics. Dr. Agnis is an alumna of the Physics Bachelor’s program at UNDIP and holds a Master’s and Doctoral degree from Kyushu University. The lecture focuses on inspiring further studies through the journey of obtaining LPDP scholarships and conducting research related to the significant potential of magnetotellurics for prospective undergraduate students. Tips on conducting research abroad are also shared, including the ease of borrowing and utilizing shared equipment among universities and institutions.
The next Expert Lecture is delivered by Ledi Anggara, an alumnus of the Physics Bachelor’s program at UNDIP who currently works in a company related to radiation therapy equipment. Ledi highlights the potential career opportunities for physics graduates specializing in medical physics and provides insights and strategies for preparing oneself with knowledge, skills, and a strong work ethic to compete for desired positions in the field of medical physics.
In June’s Expert Lecture, Ridwan, an alumnus of the Medical Physics program at UI, who is currently working in the field of medical physics in relation to radiotherapy, will be the speaker. The current advantage in the field lies in Adaptive Radiotherapy, which is considered one of the best solutions for improving the quality of radiotherapy patient care. The benefits of implementing Adaptive Radiotherapy in a study conducted by Wang (2011) indicate that 50% of normal tissue doses exceed the limits calculated by the Treatment Planning System (TPS). Conversely, offline implementation of Adaptive Radiotherapy can provide clinical advantages, with 65% of patients receiving Adaptive Radiotherapy services.
May the spirit of UNDIP physics students continue to grow, with an emphasis on enhancing knowledge, skills, and work ethics, fostering discipline and innovation.
