Radiation Physicist
Although they can be found in a variety of industries, the typical Radiation Physicist works in a laboratory setting, where they conduct research and quality control. While some Radiation Physicists work toward inventing new materials and devices, most will focus instead on studying how radiation works on matter. They will then take this information to design and create a variety of radiation-producing equipment. Some Radiation Physicists will also work in the field with medical imaging equipment or in hospitals, as Radiation Therapists, who use radiation to treat and cure diseases, most commonly cancer.
