A one-week online international specialised course on Clinical Aspects of Heavy Ion Cancer Therapy Research will be held from the 3th to the 7th of July 2023.

It is free of charge and is funded by the European Union’s H2020 Research and Innovation programme through the HITRIplus project.

This school will cover clinical aspects and it is primarily intended for medical students specialising or who are considering to specialise in oncology as well as clinicians of all levels in radiotherapy and particle therapy. 

The course will be delivered by over 35 world-leading clinicians in the field and will focus on head and neck, sarcoma, prostate, liver, pancreas, gynae and rare indications, re-irradiation, innovative methods, organ motion, treatment planning, present and future clinical trials and radiobiology. 

The course also includes a “train-the-trainer” session inspired by the very popular “May 2021 HITRIplus Masterclass school”.

This is based on the professional, open-source, research toolkit matRad, tailored to students’ and researchers’ requirements in treatment planning.

In order to enhance active interaction and participation between students and lecturers as well as networking amongst the students, the school includes online networking students events organised in the evenings

The school agenda starts at 08:30 CET; however, the lectures will be recorded so they will be immediately available for participants in different time zones.

Please note that details on presentations, recordings as well as zoom connection will be sent to registrants only.

Therefore, interested participants are encouraged to register by the 25th of June 2023 on https://indico.cern.ch/event/1248018/registrations/
