MOTIVATIONAL LETTER FOR DOCTORAL DEGREE IN ADAPTIVERADIOTHERAPY


Radiotherapy is a key cancer treatment strategy, but remains an underrepresented area of
researchfocus in the world. The Adaptive Radiotherapy is focused on radiotherapy research
training andcapacity building. In this truly multidisciplinary cluster, I will have the opportunity
to work withexperts from a wide variety of areas, such as, cancer therapy, and radiobiology,
radiosensitisersynthesis and validation, development and validation of novel imaging tracer,
radiation treatment plan modelling and radiology, clinical oncology.In-depth understanding of
the human anatomy and efficient treatment planning are just a few benefits of radiotherapy.
However, the dynamic nature of modern healthcare, human and societalneeds present challenges
in developing radiotherapy. In line with this, there is the need to developeffective and resilient
radiotherapy techniques that can stand the test of time and offer invaluablecontribution patient
care. It is therefore my fervent desire to pursue a doctoral degree in adaptiveradiotherapy in order
to help champion this cause.The tasks and skills involved in pursing PhD in such dynamic field
are multifaceted. Research anddevelopment of novel approaches to adaptive radiotherapy first
requires strong
theoretical background and practical experience of the modalities involved. The developing adap
tivetechniques that exploit correlation and complementarity between different modalities and
detail preservation entails image analysis and processing, analytical skills, software and electroni
csknow-how. In addition, excellent communications skills, structured working and team work
arevery essential in such multi-national and -institutional environment.The emphasis of my study
from my undergraduate studies in physics with biomedical option wasto understand the basic
fundamental physics principles and its applications. During my 4years ofstudy, I learnt about
most of the important use of medical physics principles
used in today’s health
services.I personally took up keen interest in Medical physics because I was fascinated with the
way physics principles is combined with those of biology and medicine, to effect better diagnosis
and treatmentof human diseases while ensuring the safety of the public, patients and those caring
for them,responsible for the technical foundations of radiology, nuclear medicine, incorporate
