Luc Beaulieu, a researcher in the Oncology axis at the CHU de Québec Research Centre and professor at Université Laval, is one of them. His significant contributions to the field of medical physics and his active involvement in organizing numerous scientific conferences over the years earned him the title of 2024 Ambassador of the Year, awarded by the Québec City Ambassadors’ Club. In July 2027, he will be part of the organizing committee for the 21st International Conference on the Use of Computers in Radiation Therapy (ICCR), which will be held at the Québec City Convention Centre.
