“Cancer therapy with ion radiation”

On the subject:
The use of ion radiation has great advantages over conventional radiotherapy, as it makes it possible to irradiate tumours more precisely. The lecture will provide an overview of the therapy technology: from the accelerator, as used clinically in Heidelberg, for example, to the radiation planning software. Current research highlights will also be discussed.

“Sustainability in the construction of transport routes – opportunities and risks”

On the subject:

“Whistleblowing about doping in sport: social conditions and generative mechanisms”

On the subject:
The major doping scandals of recent years were mainly triggered by whistleblowers. Nevertheless, little is known about the background under which athletes and those close to them are prepared to disclose their secret knowledge about doping. The lecture will present central considerations and initial results of a current research project that focuses on the social conditions of whistleblowing about doping in sport, reconstructs generative mechanisms of the whistleblowing decision and derives consequences for the anti-doping fight.
