EDU 53 - Radiation Oncology Biology Integration Network (ROBIN): Translational Radiobiology, and Critical to the Future of the Field
MODERATOR(S)
Jeffrey Buchsbaum, MD, PhD, MS, FASTRO, AM - NCI
session DESCRIPTION
ROBIN is a transorfative approach to radiobiology and at the NCI it represents perhaps the most ambitious and creative new scientific program. How it studies disease and clinical care has become a new norm and we hope to share the reasons for this with the ASTRO community because it represents a major shift for our field - it seeks to explain what happens when we treat patients with standard radiation in ways not known formally, to set a new bar from which to grow science for our field moving forward.
learning objectives
- Understand why ROBIN was created, what it means, and why it is important for the whole field.
- Have an idea about how to use the ROBIN approach in their practice, thinking, and research moving into the future and how to train people to do so.
