Description
Discoveries and technological advances spurred by the demands of fundamental physics research find applications in many disciplines, including providing benefit to society through the treatment and diagnosis of disease. Rather than survey the manifold applications of this topic, a few examples will be presented with some emphasis on the ''bench to bedside'' implementation of nuclear physics technology. In parallel, the variety of physics career options along this path will be discussed.
