| 17 | 1. //[wiki:BioPhysicsX/Meetings/2023/2023-05-02 Notes and actions]: // All \\ |
| 18 | Actions: |
| 19 | - CJ, KL, PP to meet in a fortnight -- DONE |
| 20 | - Seek two meetings with IMcN; one in a month and one just before his presentation on the 26Jun23 -- Done |
| 21 | - IMcN: Consider seminar at CSC -- Stands |
| 22 | |
| 23 | 2. //BioPhysicsX two-pager: // CJ, All \\ |
| 24 | [raw-attachment:2023-05-02-BioPhysicsX-d1.docx Present draft] \\ |
| 25 | Points outstanding from last meeting:\\ |
| 26 | - Solicit input from: |
| 27 | - Expert communicators. |
| 28 | - European technology network, and, in consultation with IMcN, colleagues in FOM at Imperial. |
| 29 | - Different versions need to be prepared for, e.g.: |
| 30 | - "Public"/lay audience; |
| 31 | - Influences/decision makers; |
| 32 | - Funding agency personnel/Institute (Imperial, Oxford) leads |
| 33 | |
| 34 | We agreed: |
| 35 | - Update to take into account PP comments; |
| 36 | - Proceed to take advice on current draft as above; |
| 37 | - Proceed to develop different versions for various audiences as above; |
| 38 | - Add "pictures" where appropriate and add a timeline. |

| 40 | 3. //Support for IMcN 10 min presentation to CRUK on 26Jun23: // CJ, All \\ |
| 41 | [raw-attachment:2023-06-07-BioPhysicsX-d1.pptx First draft of slides] \\ |
| 42 | Key underlying messages, to help focus discussion: |
| 43 | - improving clinical outcomes |
| 44 | - radiobiology at cellular level, currently unchartered territory |
| 45 | - innovation happens at disciplinary interfaces |
| 46 | - already started |
| 47 | - collaborative with international partners |
| 48 | |
| 49 | Notes from our discussion: |
| 50 | - Need intro slide on science that will be addressed and why protons/ions are different to other sources of radiation. Need to emphasise, e.g.: |
| 51 | - High LET; ions vs protons; |
| 52 | - Flexibility of novel source; ion species, time, space, and energy distributions; |
| 53 | - Different mechanisms for cell damage, different stimulation of immune response. Perhpas include "mean distance between ionising events" plot; |
| 54 | - Mini/micro beams and biological excitement; (space and time structure of beam). |
| 55 | - Critical to get Amato i/p (**action KL**). Need to gather set of presentations on wiki for reference (**action KL**). |
| 56 | - Critical to get input from Yolanda and some of her slides (**action KL**). |
| 57 | |
| 58 | 5. //CIO submission: // KL, All \\ |
| 59 | Stalled again, will need biographical information for trustees ... take forward separately |
| 60 | |
| 61 | - Under separate cover, liaise to get IMcN bio information (**action KL**). |
| 62 | |
| 63 | 6. //Actions and next steps: // All |
| 64 | - We agreed: |
| 65 | - Goal to get draft slides by 14Jun in advance of 16Jun meeting. |
| 66 | - **CJ, KL, PP** will liaise. |

| 72 | - Note visit to White City: 23Jun23 |
| 73 | - IMcN will identify Div. of Cancer prepresentative so that KL and whomever can liaise. |
| 74 | - Report to Sandrine Heutz |
| 75 | - Agree KL will ask for a meeting to brief on our pitch. |
