OMA - Optimization of Medical Accelerators OMA joins universities, research centers and clinical facilities with industry partners to address the challenges in designing and optimizing cancer treatment facilities using radio therapy, in numerical simulations for the development of advanced treatment schemes, and in beam imaging and treatment monitoring. The proposed R&D program ranges from life sciences (oncology, cell and micro biology and medical imaging), physics and accelerator sciences, mathematics and IT, to engineering and it is hence ideally suited for an innovative training of early stage researchers. |
