date: 10 September, 2012
Heavy
Ions in Science and Health
Nuclear
physics has important new applications for society, in particular for radiation
treatment of cancer and nuclear diagnostic methods, both of which use most
recent advances in nuclear physics research. The workshop is focusing on
research and education in nuclear physics and its applications in the field of
healthcare and diagnostics.
Venue: 9:00 - 13:00 - Alegaten 55 (66), Auditorium B, and a Guided
Tour to the old accelerator from 14:30 - 15:30 with meeting
