Slide 2
BASROC
• British Accelerator Science Radiation Oncology Consortium
• An association of universities and institutes (Cockcroft and Adams!). Group came together out of PPARC meeting aimed at raising accelerator activity outside particle physics
• Aim to build a complete hadron therapy facility using an NS-FFAG.
• Hope to increase use of accelerators, their manufacture, R and D etc in the UK
• General umbrella for CONFORM and other projects, e.g. Medical Instrumentation Meeting

Slide 3
CONFORM
• Construction Of a Nonscaling FFAG for Oncology, Research and Medicine
• Project (first of many?) produced by BASROC • Successful bid last year to Basic Technology fund for £8M
• Outline proposal put together – selected for consideration
• Full proposal written across many institutes and submitted through Manchester. Interviewed by panel.
• Funded in full – announcement 12 months ago• Started 1st April 2007

Slide 13
PAMELA
• Clinical Hadron Therapy machine, probably at Oxford
• Carbon is essential. Proton solution is commercially available.
• 3-ring solution (Keil and Trbojevic) or 1 ring (Koscielniak and Johnstone)
• Workshop next summer to settle final parameters
