INVITATION TO MAY 2024 EDITION OF NAMP MONTHLY WEBINARS Register Topic: Advances in Radioimmunotherapy Speaker: Dr Andrew E. Ekpenyong Associate Professor of Physics Creighton University, Omaha, Nebraska, USA.  Training in Physics and Medical Physics: Dr Ekpenyong earned a master’s degree in physics in 2007 from Creighton University, Omaha, USA. He earned his PhD in Physics from the University of Cambridge, UK, in 2012, following intensive research in Physics of Medicine, at the Cavendish Laboratory. Dr Ekpenyong’s additional training in medical physics, besides his MS and PhD, includes a year-long didactic and clinical work at East Carolina University (a CAMPEP- approved program) in North Carolina, USA, two years postdoctoral work in Biophysics at Technical University, Dresden, Germany, as well as an intensive summer immersion in the medical physics program of HeidelbergUniversity, Germany.  Lecturing: He currently teaches Nuclear Instruments and Methods, Quantum Mechanics, Physics of Radiation Therapy, Dosimetry and Radiation Protection, Radiation Biophysics, as well as General Physics in Creighton University, Omaha, Nebraska, USA. Dr Ekpenyong has taught eight different courses in Creighton University’s CAMPEP-approved Medical Physics graduate program. Research: He has supervised research for both graduates and undergraduates at Technical University, Dresden, Germany and Creighton University, USA. His main research expertise includes cell mechanics, physics of cancer (physical oncology), nanoparticle-mediated radiotherapy (NPRT), radioimmunotherapy, brain cancers, microfluidics, microgravity and space radiation. Scholarly Works: Dr Ekpenyong has authored/co-authored several articles in peer-reviewed journals in physics and medical physics. His most recent textbook, his 7th, is titled “Mathematical physics for Nuclear Experiments”, published by Francis & Taylor, Routledge and CRC Press. Service to Humanity: Dr Andrew Ekpenyong founded and runs the Joseph Ukpo Hospitals and Research Institutes (JUHRI), which provide 100% free and high-quality healthcare to all patients. The hospitals are sited in rural areas of South-South Nigeria where poverty is endemic. Some International Awards. Dr Ekpenyong attended the University of Cambridge for his PhD, as a Cambridge Commonwealth Scholar, a prestigious and competitive international award managed by the Cambridge Commonwealth Trust. The scholarship offered a substantial bursary for his PhD. He was also a Duke of Edinburgh Scholar, at St Edmund’s College, Cambridge. Register for the webinar More about the speaker
