Patient-specific Microstructural and radIobiological model for persoNalised external beam radiatIONn therapy in localised tumourS
Funded by the European Research Council Programme of the EU.
Our vision
Our vision is to drive a paradigm shift in radiotherapy planning and adaptation by developing a novel, patient-specific, and clinically compatible modeling framework. This framework will capture the microscopic characteristics of tumors and their interactions with radiation beams, paving the way for biologically targeted treatments and ultimately improving patient care.
The MINIONS project, funded by the European Union through an ERC Starting Grant (Chiara Paganelli, Principal Investigator), is carried out at the CartCasLab of the Politecnico di Milano.
Partners
The project involves a strategic collaboration with leading clinical partners in oncology and radiation oncology, enhancing its interdisciplinary nature and overall impact. This partnership brings together expertise from clinical research, data science, and technological innovation, ensuring that the developed models are tested, validated, and aligned with real-world clinical needs.
