Hadron Micro-Irradiation


Surrey Tower We have a long history of work with charged particle micro-beams - Delivering sub-micron low-particle-rate beams for radiobiology experiments - that started at the Gray Cancer Institute in Northwood, London. For example see these articles in the Telegraph external link and from the BBC external link.
Since our move to Oxford this work has continued in collaboration with the Ion Beam Centre at Surrey University. There, the Wolfson Tower has been built to accommodate the world's first scanning focused vertical nanobeam external link. At the end of the beam line is one of our open microscopes for the manipulation and imaging of biological cells.
