MAIR-2 : Biological effects and medical applications of ionizing radiation
The aim of this course is to provide an overview and basic knowledge in the biological responses elicited in cells by radiation exposure, and how they are used in medical applications such as radiotherapy, in combination with immunotherapy. Thus, this course will cover the health effects of ionizing radiation, from cells to disease, and the use of ionizing radiation in new (combinatorial) radiotherapy procedures.
