Mailing Lists

The following mailing lists and web sites may be of interest to those in the radiation sciences. With mailing lists the postings arrive at your terminal as email. Responses are sent via email to the listserver (i.e., to ALL subscribers) or privately. You will automatically receive instructions on how to unsubscribe after you subscribe to the list.

The AAPM Mailing Lists

The AAPM supports a number of official mailing lists for announcements, solicitation of member feedback and other AAPM business. You are automatically subscribed to the the members' one-way list if you are an AAPM member and have your email address on file in the membership directory. The contact for posting to this list is the AAPM's listmaster, Michael Woodward. The AAPM also supports a number of closed 2-way lists for committees and other of its working groups.

A number of AAPM Regional Chapters also have their own mailing lists, some hosted by the AAPM, others hosted elsewhere. Some are unmoderated two-way discussion lists and are used for announcing chapter meetings and discussing chapter issues. AAPM chapter members may or may not be automatically subscribed depending on their chapter's mode of operating the list. Contact the Chapter President for the details of a given list.

Members of the American medical physics community seeking a national two-way list to discuss organizational or national issues may use MedPhysUSA without regard to membership in any particular organization.

Diagnostic Imaging Medical Physicists List (DXIMGMEDPHYS)

To subscribe, simply send the following text in the body of a message (not subject!) to listserv@hermes.gwu.edu:

subscribe Name-of-the-list Your-First-Name Your-Last-Name
example: subscribe DXIMGMEDPHYS John Doe

Please note that your message cannot contain any other text, such as your signature file. Any other text is interpreted as a command, the LISTSERV server will return errors.

The American Medical Physics Mailing List (MedPhysUSA)

MedPhysUSA provides an unmoderated two-way forum for issues that have limited interest outside of the USA and that would be inappropriate or inconsiderate to send to physicists worldwide via Global MedPhys. Topics may include government reimbursement, state and federal regs, certifying boards, job postings, local and regional meeting announcements, etc. However everyone, regardless of location, is welcome to subscribe. Global MedPhys and MedPhysUSA subscriptions are completely independent of each other even though they come from the same listserver. You subscribe via the website or by sending email with the text:

subscribe MedPhysUSA firstname lastname
without punctuation, degrees, certifications, military rank, etc. to listserv@lists.wayne.edu

For example send
subscribe MedPhysUSA John Doe
to the LISTSERV address from the email address where you wish to receive the email.

The subject field is unimportant, only the text of the message is read by the Listserv software.

Subscription options and list archives are available at lists.wayne.edu/archives/medphysusa.html.
