The conference "Applications of radiation detection techniques in fundamental physics, food control, medicine and biology" will take place from May 8th to 12th at Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati (LNF - INFN), Italy.

The main purpose of the conference is to exchange experience and expertise gained by various institutions in the fields of radiation detection techniques developed for fundamental physics, food control, medical diagnostics and biology. The conference will be a showcase for forefront experimental as well as theoretical developments, where the interplay between outstanding research and innovative concepts on the borderline between physics, medicine and biology will be promoted.

The conference is organized with the support of the INFN-LNF, Jagiellonian University in Cracow, Center for Theranostics, Poland, the Foundational Questions Institute (Grant No. FQXi-RFP-CPW-2008), the John Templeton Foundation (Grant 62099), the STRONG-2020 EU project (grant agreement No 824093), the MITIQO project n. A0375-2020-36647,“Gruppi di ricerca 2020” - POR FESR Lazio 2014-2020 and Comune di Frascati.

The conference will be held in person. The selected contributions will be published as open-access articles in Bio-Algorithms and Med-Systems https://sciendo.com/issue/BIOAL/18/1

Conference fee is 450 Euro
