What if an X-ray dose briefly strengthens the networks glioblastoma cells use to communicate?
This study found 1.8 Gy increased TNT connectivity 6 to 10 h after irradiation. #GelCount was used to image colony assays that helped set the key survival doses.

FLASH question: is it oxygen depletion, or radicals recombining too fast to react with O₂?
This study used ESR + oxygen tracking and saw reduced O₂ depletion and spin-probe signal at UHDR. Oxygen conditions were set with HypoxyLab and validated with OxyLite.

From molecular responses to tumour control, #AI offers powerful insights in #radiobiology— but simulations need solid experimental data. Collaboration between experimentalists & computational scientists is key to building reliable, personalised RT models.

🏆 Travel Grant Award Report – Wolfsberg 2025
Can low-dose CT radiation influence #coloncancer risk?
A poster at the #WolfsbergMeeting explored how effects may vary with the stage of carcinogenesis and genetic background.

🧬 ESTRO’s #radiobiology course, held in Rome, offered a deep dive into the biology behind #radiotherapy.
From stem cells to clinical cases, attendees gained practical insights, strengthened their skills, and connected with peers from around the world.

🏆 Dr. Vincent Favaudon (Institut Curie, @cnrs.fr, @inserm.fr, @univparissaclay.bsky.social) receives the Lifetime Achievement Award at #ESTRO25 for his outstanding career in #radiobiology, marked by the discovery of the FLASH effect.
Congratulations on this prestigious honor in #research 👏
#WhereisHoskin describes the #radiobiology of brachytherapy. It's complex, so for a bit of light relief - we have a quiz Q - answer 1954!

A 3 tiered display unit. On the top tier there is a sign saying New Books in the middle, on the left is a book entitled Epidemiology. To the left of the sign is a book entitled Essential Epidemiology. The middle shelf from left to right are four books entitled Kansk's Clinical Opthalmology, Opthalmology, The Chimp Paradox and Obstetrics by Ten Teachers. On the bottom shelf there are three books displayed entitled: Basic Clinical Radiobiology, Clinical Specialities Medical Students Version Guide and Before We Are Born.
We've recently acquired books on #epidemiology, #ophthalmology, #embriology, #radiobiology, public health ethics & #obstetrics. Books are available at the Cairns Library (JR Hospital) for library members to borrow.
What else would you like us to buy? Please get in touch with your recommendations.
#RadiopharmaceuticalTherapies are different than #chemotherapy because #radiobiology is the #pharmacodynamics. Is also not #radiotherapy because we deal with #pharmacokinetics. Why keep using it as chemo (fixed activity) and setting dose limits of external beam radiotherapy?
