The AAPM Working Group on Grand Challenges (WGGC) is now accepting proposals for scientific Grand Challenges. WGGC will select one proposal for sponsorship, which includes organizational support and limited financial assistance.
The proposed Challenge should be structured to conclude prior to the Summer 2026 AAPM Annual Meeting. One member each from the organizing team, the winning participant team and the runner-up participant team will receive complimentary registration to attend the meeting in-person. Each will present during a dedicated Challenge session and be recognized during the Awards & Honors Ceremony.
Proposals should address timely and impactful problems in medical physics and align with the mission of the AAPM. At least one member of the organizing team must be an AAPM member in good standing.
