DESCRIPTION:The Particle Therapy Masterclass is an advanced educational co
 urse designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of particle beam th
 erapy\, a highly precise form of radiation treatment that allows superior 
 dose control while minimising exposure to surrounding healthy tissue. The 
 class introduces the physical principles of particle therapy\, including t
 he Bragg peak\, and explains how these principles translate into clinical 
 advantages over conventional photon-based radiotherapy.\nThrough expert-le
 d lectures and clinically focused discussions\, the masterclass explores r
 eal-world applications across multiple disease sites\, treatment planning 
 strategies\, delivery technologies\, and quality assurance considerations.
  Aimed at radiation oncologists\, medical physicists\, and oncology profes
 sionals\, the program bridges theory and practice\, equipping participants
  with the knowledge needed to evaluate\, implement\, and advance particle 
 therapy in modern clinical care.\nThe students will meet with the leading 
 experts in the field of radiopharmaceutical radiotherapy (RPT) and acceler
 ator design for new-age radiotherapy approaches. The lectures will be foll
 owed by a practical session on hadron therapy planning. Details on the han
 ds-on practical session and other material can be found in the IPPOG Parti
 cle Therapy MasterClass page. \nThe event is organised as part of the 31s
 t International Particle Physics Outreach Group Collaboration meeting in c
 ollaboration with Jožef Stefan Institute and University of Ljubljana\, Fa
 culty of Mathematics and Physics “and it is based on the well-establishe
 d IPPOG Particle Therapy MasterClasses.\n\n\nhttps://indico.ijs.si/event/3
