Scope

The 3d Nano-IBCT Conference is organized within the COST framework of the Action MP1002 (Nano-scale Insights into Ion Beam Cancer Therapy). The conference will bring together experts from different disciplines: physics, chemistry, biology, hadron-therapy centers, medical institutions, specialized in the radiation damage of biological matter.

The following topics will be addressed in the talks within the Conference:\strong>

  • Ion propagation in matter
  • Primary ionization in the medium, direct damage and production of secondary electrons and radicals
  • Propagation of secondary electrons and radicals
  • Electron attack on DNA and proteins
  • Radiobiological scale effects
  • Hadron therapy centers
  • Related European projects
