On this elective, students can learn the theoretical bases of radiobiology as well as some practical implications important for a veterinarian.
The main goal of the elective is to provide the necessary background of the subject of radiobiology: mainly to explain how different types of radiation affect living organisms, and give an overview of theoretical and practical application of radiological methods in human and veterinary medicine and in agriculture. The elective also includes special topics explaining the biological consequences of radioactive contamination of the environment (food safety, veterinary and public health).
