Florian Kamp received his doctorate in physics from the Technical University of Munich in 2015. Afterwards he worked five years as a postdoc on various topics in the field of medical physics affiliated with the Department of Radiation Oncology of the LMU university hospital in Munich. About two years ago he joined the radiotherapy department at the University Hospital Cologne, Germany, leading the medical physics group. Having to work in a two-shift clinical environment, he is very eager to reduce the time spent for patient QA at the linacs.
