Proceedings of a Conference on Radiobiology at the Intra - Cellular Level

Proceedings of a Conference on Radiobiology at the Intra-Cellular Level provides the papers presented during the first U.C.L.A. Conference on Radiobiology, held at Catalina Island in September 1957. The compendium is comprised of research papers from a diverse group of scientists that explore the phenomena which take place in irradiated cells. The topics covered during the meeting include the radio sensitivity of the model cell; the chemical action of ionizing radiations and radiobiological effects; the sensitivity of different cells in the same organism; and the interactions between cells and tissues following radiation. Radiobiologists, cytologists, and biophysicists will find the book very insightful.
