APPEAL 11 - Accelerators for Particle Therapy in Medicine
In collaboration with CERN, the University of Oxford is organising a one-day school to give A-level teachers an opportunity to learn about particle accelerators and their applications in particle therapy. Particle accelerators, invented and used for pure research in fundamental physics have become important instruments in medicine, for both diagnosis and treatment of ailments such as cancer.
The school will also include lectures on admission to undergraduate studies in physics and a hands-on MasterClass on particle therapy.
The school will address questions that often fascinate students, such as “How does a particle accelerator work?” and "What are the applications of particle accelerators in our daily lives?".
Past APPEAL events were very successful and this event should be as interesting and thought-provoking event as ever.
The APPEAL-11 event will take place on Saturday, 28 June 2025 at the University of Oxford.
To take part in this school please register here before the Friday, 20 June 2025.
There are no registration fees for the teachers to participate in the event. The organisers are grateful for the support received from the following organisations:
