Welcome!

The University of Wisconsin Medical Radiation Research Center (UWMRRC), in the Medical Physics Department is a non-profit education and research-oriented service laboratory. Calibration services are available for most radiation measurement instrumentation available in the medical or health physics community. 

The UWMRRC has four primary objectives: 1) Educate and train graduate students in the Medical Physics Department, 2) Conduct research in ionizing radiation metrology, 3) Provide accurate and precise calibrations for radiation measurement instrumentation and sources, and 4) Provide federally mandated personnel radiation exposure monitoring services.

The UWMRRC is the only non-government research program dedicated to radiation metrology.

The University of Wisconsin Medical Radiation Research Center (UWMRRC) trains students in the Medical Physics Department at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. For general questions about applying for graduate studies in medical physics, please visit the medical physics application information page.

UWMRRC Graduate Students are supported through the UWRCL's calibration service fees and research contracts. We invite you to browse the projects and the students working on them. Feel free to contact the students via e-mail if you have any questions.
