About

    Radiobiology is a branch of biology that focuses on studying the effects of ionizing radiation on living organisms. This field explores the mechanisms by which radiation interacts with biological systems, including DNA damage, cellular response to radiation, and the long-term health effects of exposure to radiation. Radiobiology research is important for understanding the risks associated with radiation exposure, improving cancer treatments that use radiation therapy, and developing strategies to protect individuals from the harmful effects of radiation.
