On Friday 28 February at 14:00, Folefac Charlemagne Asonganyi defends his PhD dissertation entitled "Pre-clinical studies combining photon or proton irradiation and hyperthermia to improve cancer therapy".

This innovative pre-clinical research explores how integrating radiation therapy with hyperthermia can enhance cancer treatment outcomes. Folefac’s work investigates the synergy of photon and proton irradiation with hyperthermia to target tumors more effectively while minimising harm to healthy tissues. His findings highlight potential breakthroughs in cancer therapies, particularly in treatment-resistant cases.

The summary is written by the PhD student.

The defence is public and takes place in Room C114-103, Department of Experimental Clinical Oncology, Aarhus University Hospital. Please see the press release for more information.
