  1. 355. Tracking the nuclear wide dynamics of live cell nucleosome proximity by fluorescence anisotropy imaging of histone FRET
    Dr Elizabeth Hinde (University of Melbourne)
    15/12/2022, 14:00
    AIP: Biomedical and Medical Physics
    Talk (preferred)

    Here we present a powerful new microscopy method based on fluorescence anisotropy imaging microscopy (FAIM) of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) between fluorescently labelled nucleosomes to spatiotemporally map live cell genome organisation in real time with super resolution.

  3. 445. A Systematic Review of the Proton and Carbon FLASH Effect
    Jake Atkinson (University of South Australia)

    AIP: Biomedical and Medical Physics
    Talk (preferred)

    FLASH is an emerging radiotherapy modality that enhances normal tissue sparing whilst maintaining tumour kill efficacy. This talk will summarise recent preclinical proton- and carbon-FLASH literature, and the predicted radiobiological mechanisms responsible for the 'FLASH effect' phenomenon.

  4. 414. The effect of discrete wavelengths of visible light on the developing murine embryo

    AIP: Biomedical and Medical Physics
    Talk (preferred)

    Light is present throughout the process of IVF. However, its impact on embryos remains unknown. Here we controlled for equivalent energy dose of light applied across wavelengths and found longer wavelengths of light to be detrimental to the embryo.

  5. 86. Reducing Uncertainty in Proton Therapy Treatment Planning
    Melissa McIntyre (University of Adelaide)
    15/12/2022, 15:00
    AIP: Biomedical and Medical Physics
    Talk (preferred)

    Proton therapy is a modern radiotherapy treatment which allows significant sparing of healthy tissues compared with conventional photon radiation. Some assumptions made during treatment planning introduce uncertainties into the process which should be well understood and quantified.

  6. 118. Modelling the effect of daughter migration on dosimetry estimates for Actinium-225 in Targeted Alpha Therapy
    Stephen Tronchin (Department of Physics, University of Adelaide, Adelaide SA 5005, Australia.)
    15/12/2022, 15:15
    AIP: Biomedical and Medical Physics
    Talk (preferred)

    We developed a compartment model where we assigned each daughter of actinium-225 unique biokinetics. We used the model to study the effect of daughter migration on organ doses in Targeted Alpha Therapy.
