FRPT 2022 Conference is a multidisciplinary forum for the latest research on FLASH and Particle Therapy. It will include an exciting and inspiring programme reflecting recent advancements within the field presented by world-renowned researchers and scientists.

There will be also many sessions where abstract presenters can show their research and discuss it with experts and fellow colleagues.

The programme is built around 4 main themes:

  • Flash Modalities
  • Flash Mechanisms
  • Flash in Pre-Clinical and Clinical Settings
  • Proton and Heavy Ions

The conference aims to gather researchers and students (from academia and industry) with professionals working in clinical oncology (clinicians, medical physicists, dosimetrists, radiotherapy technologists – and nurses) and provide a multidisciplinary forum to discuss the latest developments in FLASH RT.

FRPT goes from basic science, through preclinical research and combines these with translational applications and clinical trials and treatment.

The ultimate goal of the conference is to harness the potential for FLASH RT in a rigorous scientific and quality assured environment and to act as a forum for the very latest advancements in this rapidly developing field.

Several OMA partners, including University of Manchester, The Christie (UK) and GSI, are involved in this conference.

The OMA project is recognized as a formal collaborator in the event.
