Thank you @medphyslindsay.bsky.social for doing this.

Thank you to all who attended #AAPM2025 meeting of @aapmhq.bsky.social

According to preliminary data, it is heartening to learn that within the 12% of the attendees were from outside US

Thank you to all who attended #AAPM2025 meeting of @aapmHQ

According to preliminary data, I so happy to share that in spite of all the challenges, still attendance was in par with previous years.

Santa Fe Diaries:

Exhibits at the Museum of International Folk Art was very interesting.

Exhibits like these were very unique!

This was an important meeting of society leadership - having a chance to interact and develop relationships with more 20 societies. Even though I was tired, I had to attend this for advancing #medicalphysics

Santa Fe Diaries:

Always wanted to buy a hat.

Tried several times in Montana, Bogota and finally my wife encouraged me to buy today in Santa Fe.

I know we all don’t care about titles nor position, but we are ready to jump & help the global medical physics community any time, any where.

Nice infographics!

For the first time the elected representatives and their staff know who is a medical physicist!

Thanks to all of you for making the #AAPMadvocacy a huge success!

The thing about leadership is to realize that in the end, the vision and mission is above you. More importantly, your members will help achieve the goal. @aapmhq.bsky.social is blessed to have @mmahesh.bsky.social as its President and @robinmiller95.bsky.social as President-Elect because as busy as they have been past few days, they always made time to have a conversation, listen about our experience so far, keep encouraging us to do good work, and happily agree to take photos 🙂
