COST SYRA3 First Training School on radiation therapy, biology and dosimetry

The first multidisciplinary school on “Radiation Therapy with Synchrotron Radiation” will be organized at the ESRF, Grenoble on May 19-21, with a welcome session on 18th evening. The school is financed by the “SYRA3”- TD1205 COST Action (www.syra3.eu). It is open to all scientists and medical doctors; it is expected to be of particular benefit to Early Stage Researchers (PhD+8 years).

Three main subjects will be dealt in this first edition:

• Biology and medicine of X-ray radiation therapy
• Dosimetry and image guidance
• Dose enhancement effects

The school will consist of theoretical and practical sessions at the beamlines.
