Learning unit contents

Radiobiology is the study of radiations on the living matter. The goal of this course is to provide the scientific elements at the basis of radioprotection.

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

1) to provide the scientific elements which explain the effects of radiations
2) to describe quantitatively the effects of radiations
3) to evaluate the risks and benefits of (non) ionizing radiations
4) to correlate radiobiology and radioprotection
5) to correlate radiobiology with therapeutic procedures after an accidental irradiation
6) to confer expertise for the use of radiations in medicine
7) to compare radiations and other deleterious agents in the environment

Prerequisite knowledge and skills

The radiobiology is the study of 2 partners, radiations and living organisms. It is therefore necessary to have basic notions of physics and biology.
