研究生培训计划是医学生物物理学系的重要组成部分，其历史可以追溯到50年前，它起源于安大略省癌症研究所的癌症研究。该系提供硕士（MSc）和博士学位级别的跨学科研究型研究生课程。MSc程序是常见的切入点，但重点是PhD程序。该课程的目的是拓宽所有学生的学习背景，其中大多数是具有生命或物理科学本科背景的学生。<br> <br>中枢神经系统的功能及其在疾病中的作用是一个活跃的研究领域MBP的教师。他们的工作使用了一系列分子，细胞，模型系统和临床研究方法，通常利用成像技术来获得对健康和疾病中神经系统的新颖见解。
The Department of Medical Biophysics is an interdisciplinary department with a strong history of excellence and discovery in cancer research, treatment, and beyond. Located primarily at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, Sunnybrook Research Institute, and SickKids Research Institute, the department offers research training leading to the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. The multidisciplinary program in cancer research and broader biomedical research cuts across the conventional boundaries of biology, physics, translational medicine and engineering to deliver a modern, advanced academic curriculum and world-class research training.<br>In this specialization within our PhD program, students complete a thesis-based PhD, while completing a structured medical physics course curriculum. The specialized program provides a research-intensive environment that immerses students in clinical technologies pertinent to medical imaging, such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and nuclear medicine, and radiation therapy. Cutting edge research involving machine learning, theranostics, and heavy particle therapy are ongoing. Students gain skills to pursue the production of high quality research and develop leadership skills.<br>The function of the central nervous system and its role in disease is an active area of research for faculty in MBP. Their work uses a range of molecular, cellular, model system, and clinical research approaches, often making use of imaging technologies to obtain novel insights into the nervous system in health and disease.
