R&D&i on Radon Workshop
From 11 to 13 November, the LSC will host a workshop dedicated to R&D&I on radon at its facilities. The main objective is to bring together the different groups that have developed and are developing research projects on this topic in Spain, together with some national and European experts. The aim is to encourage scientific exchange and promote future projects that generate new knowledge and offer solutions that benefit society as a whole. Registration is now open and all the information available at https://indico.cern.ch/event/1410741/
Bio Platform: experiment “DNA damage in yeast in low background radiation”
During the week of July 15, the first round of the PB-08-23: "DNA damage in yeast in low background radiation" was carried out. The aim of this experiment is to study the effects of low background radiation (LRB) on the stability of the mitochondrial DNA of S. cerevisiae (yeast) and on the enzymatic reactions involved in cellular respiration. In the upcoming rounds, the number of generations exposed to the LBR will be increased.
