CERN has been contributing to developing technologies to improve hadron therapy for the past 30 years. Now, a team at CERN is working on new design concepts that would make the machines delivering hadron therapy much more compact and economically viable

CERN’s Workshop on Global Health brought together professionals from diverse sectors to tackle pressing health challenges. Join the public webinar on 26 November to discover the outcomes of the workshop.

Ugo Amaldi helped create a European network of cancer therapy centres using beams of ions, in particular carbon ions

Global healthcare issues – from prosthesis pain to severe burns – were targeted by four student teams in the I.FAST project’s third challenge-based initiative

Scientists are testing a new device to help target cancer cells more accurately in ion radiotherapy of head and neck tumours, which could help limit the treatment’s side effects. It includes Timepix3, a small particle detector developed at CERN

Spend a fascinating evening discovering how the technologies of particle physics are driving progress in medicine

A novel mathematical model developed as part of the BioDynaMo project, born from CERN openlab, mimics vascular tumour growth in breast cancer and its response to treatment

The same AI algorithms used to diagnose anomalies in CERN’s complex accelerator chain have the potential to detect brain pathologies such as strokes
