OMA project welcomes new adjunct partners
The OMA consortium has been joined by two adjunct partners: The Centre for the Clinical Application of Particles Imperial College and Added Value Solutions, approved at the last OMA Steering Committee meeting.
The Centre for the Clinical Application of Particles (CCAP) is an interdisciplinary collaboration of staff from the Faculty of Medicine, the Imperial Academic Health Science Centre, the Department of Physics, the Imperial CRUK Cancer Centre, the Institute of Cancer Research, the John Adams Institute and the Oxford Institute for Radiation Oncology. The principal objectives of the CCAP are to deliver a broad programme of measurement of the radiobiological effect of particle beams and systematic studies of radiobiological mechanisms; develop novel, compact, laser-driven accelerator systems for clinical applications; and develop novel diagnostic, imaging, data-processing, and machine-learning techniques.
Added Value Industrial Engineering Solutions S.L.U. is an international company which provides technology-based services to innovative and challenging projects, mainly for Big Science projects in the field of Nuclear Fusion, Accelerators, High power LASERs, Space, Neutron Sources and Astrophysics. Strongly focused on the development of outstanding devices, instruments, mechanisms and structures, their expertise covers design, manufacturing, assembly, tests and supply under ISO 9001 EN 9100, providing to our customers all the way up from the conceptual design to the turnkey solution.
Both complement the expertise in OMA and offer additional research and secondment opportunities to the network’s Fellows.
