Medical physics names next residency director

In June Dr. Alisa Walz-Flannigan was named as the next Imaging Physics Residency Director, Department of Medical Physics and Radiology.

Walz-Flannigan brings over a decade of experience mentoring residents and teaching at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. In addition, she has spent five years leading a diagnostic physics and radiation safety division at Marshfield Clinic. Walz-Flannigan will lead the pathway forward in diagnostic imaging physics education and training, working closely with partners in radiology and medical physics to refine the department’s approach to daily clinical physics.

“Alisa has great insight into how to run clinical operations and how to mentor future medical physicists,” says Department Chair Brian Pogue. “She has great intuition on how to connect with people and we look forward to her joining the
team in the fall.”

Walz-Flannigan will join the department in October 2024.
