IBA initiates global DynamicARC® Consortium for the roll-out of Proton Arc Therapy
Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, June 1, 2021 - IBA (Ion Beam Applications S.A., EURONEXT), the world s leading provider of proton therapy solutions, has highlighted its commitment to shaping the future of proton therapy by initiating a global DynamicARC® Consortium (DAC), in collaboration with leading clinical centers.
The objective of the consortium is to prepare for the clinical roll out of the DynamicARC® treatment modality within the proton therapy community using the Proteus® platform. Specifically, the DAC members will ensure that the treatment modality reaches its full potential in terms of dose conformality and patient throughput.

Simple Science Summary The cells in our body follow a 24-hour cycle, the circadian clock. Disruptions of this cycle, for example by working night shifts, can cause disease. In recent years, it has become clear that the clock can be disrupted in.
Light-controlled on/off switch helps control biological clock in cultured cells, explanted tissue
The biological clock is present in almost all cells of an organism. As more and more evidence emerges that clocks in certain organs could be out of sync, there is a need to investigate and reset these clocks locally. Scientists from the Netherlands and Japan introduced a light-controlled on/off switch to a kinase inhibitor, which affects clock function. This gives them control of the biological clock in cultured cells and explanted tissue. They published their results on 26 May in
Nature Communications.
Life on Earth has evolved under a 24-hour cycle; of light and dark, hot and cold. As a result, our cells are synchronized to these 24-hour oscillations, says Wiktor Szymanski, Professor of Radiological Chemistry at the University Medical Center Groningen. Our circadian clock is regulated by a central controller in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, a region in the brain directly above the
