Ion beam-based therapy is a leading research field in the treatment of cancer. Its optimisation requires advances in accelerator design, beam and patient diagnostics, as well as beyond state-of-the-art simulation tools.

The OMA consortium is organizing a 3-day International Conference on Medical Accelerators and Particle Therapy in Seville, Spain between 4th and 6th September 2019. The conference will be hosted by University of Seville/Centro Nacional de Aceleradores (CNA).

This meeting is an ideal place to present and discuss research advances in next-generation therapy accelerators, diagnostics for beam and patient monitoring, treatment planning, as well as medical facility and beam line design and optimisation. The event will feature talks from research leaders across the field of Medical Accelerator technology and also presents an opportunity for contributed talks and poster contributions.

The cost for participating is £600 including accommodation, full board and all social events. Several scholarships are available for early career researchers. You will find more information and can register via the following link: https://indico.cern.ch/event/803528/
