Optimization of Medical Accelerators (OMA)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2016, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2020,
...r is a major social problem, and it is the main cause of death between the ages 45-65 years. In the treatment of cancer, radio therapy (RT) plays an essential role. RT with hadrons (protons and light ions), due to their unique physical and radiobiological properties, offers several advantages over photons for specific cancer types. In particular, they penetrate the patient with minimal diffusion, ...

Biobased self-functionalised self-reinforced composite materials based on high performance nanofibrillar PLA fibres (BIO4SELF)
Date du début: 1 mars 2016, Date de fin: 30 juin 2019,
...ness and high Tm one to form the reinforcing fibres. To reach unprecedented stiffness in the reinforcing PLA fibres, we will combine PLA with bio-LCP (liquid crystalline polymer) for nanofibril formation. Further, we will increase the temperature resistance of PLA and improve its durability. This way, BIO4SELF will exploit recent progress in PLA fibre technology. We will add inherent self-function ...

MyrrhA Research Infrastructure Support Action (MARISA)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 31 août 2016,
"The MYRRHA project aims to develop and to construct a world-class and first-of-a-kind nuclear research infrastructure. The design and the construction of the MYRRHA facility is particularly challenging since it requires the management of a large number of activities in view of achieving technical excellence in compliance with the project budget and schedule. Accordingly, state-of-the-art project ...

Research Training in 3D Digital Imaging for Cancer Radiation Therapy (ENTERVISION)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2015,
The vision on a future high-precision radiation therapy utilizing either particle or photon beams is a treatment on a technological level which allows for: (1) obtaining information on relevant tumour parameters (volume, position, topology, density - also of the surrounding tissue) during every moment of therapeutic irradiation; (2) adapting the treatment plan in real time; and (3) initiating the ...

European NoVel Imaging Systems for ION therapy (ENVISION)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2014,
Following the pioneering experiences which lasted several decades, particle therapy has become a recognized way of curing cancer. 2 new European dual-ion facilities (Heidelberg, Pavia) will soon become operational, followed by several others which are today at different stages of planning and construction. Hadron therapy faces the challenge of improving treatment outcomes with tools able to provid ...

Targeting alpha-particle emitting radionuclides to combat cancer (TARCC)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2008, Date de fin: 30 juin 2011,
"This project aims at improving drug delivery to cancer cells by developing targeted radiotherapy with alpha-emitting radionuclides. Alpha particles emitted by radionuclides have short tracks (about 100 microns) in body tissues. As a result, they should be most appropriate to treat small-size tumours and isolated cancer cells. This project proposes the development of improved vectors and targeting ...
