I am seriously considering whether I am going to leave twitter. For the moment no more tweets or reposts this side of the festive break. I will take stock in the New Year. I will be active on Linkedin. A huge thank you to my followers - all 3,000 of you ❀️

A few highlights from the #reirradiation working group at the ESTRO Physics Workshop that took place end of last week in Krakov πŸ‘‡Thank you Ane and your group for the great work! πŸ™@cancerphysicist
How do we talk about (and report) #reirradiation? There's been quite a lot of variation in the literature - including basic spelling! We agreed on a set of standard nomenclature & terminology in the @ESTRO_RT Physics reRT working group sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #medphys #radonc
