Biological Optimization and Evaluation in Raystation
The clinical goals of treatment planning are usually stated indirectly as prescribed dose levels to the tumor and limiting dose criteria to the organs at risk. These dose levels are decided with some expected clinical outcome in mind, and they relate to some specific fractionation schedule. If the daily treatments of an individual patient for some reason deviate from the intended ones, the delivered total dose is no longer a predictor of the clinical outcome.

Climate Action | Tracker Decarbonising Steel: National Circumstances and Priority Actions, August 2024
Over 1.8 billion tonnes of steel are produced globally each year for a wide range of applications, including construction, transportation infrastructure, vehicles, machinery, renewable power generation facilities, etc. The steel industry is a major carbon emitter, contributing 7-8% of global GHG emissions. Steelmaking has traditionally been viewed as a “hard-to-abate” industry due to limited alternative technologies for primary production and the enduring lifespan of steel mills and equipment. But recent advancements in technology, policy commitments, and private investments have made the transition possible.

The Climate Technology Progress Report 2024
During recent Conferences of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COPs), countries reaffirmed their strong commitment to working towards the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C, in line with the Paris Agreement. This was further underscored in the Emissions Gap Report 2024 (UNEP 2024), which states that countries must significantly increase their ambition and action in the next round of Nationally Determined Contributions, or the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C goal will be unattainable within a few years.

Emerging Innovative Technologies in Sustainable Environment and Essential Needs
Research, Development, and Innovation (RDI) play a vital role in advancing environmental sustainability and meeting essential human needs. By fostering sustainable practices, RDI enables breakthroughs in energy efficiency, waste reduction, and resource conservation, helping mitigate environmental impact. Innovations in fields like renewable energy, water purification, and sustainable agriculture address crucial challenges like climate change, pollution, and food security.

Climate Change Action Plan 2021-2025
Climate change, poverty, and inequality are defining challenges of our time—and it is crucial that we tackle them together, recognizing the interconnections between people, the planet, and the economy. The COVID-19 pandemic and its economic impacts have been devastating, and many countries are still deep in the COVID crisis, even as they face growing climate change impacts. These crises have further aggravated growing structural weaknesses of the last decade.

A Roadmap to Digital Environmental Assessment
Over the past two decades, various stakeholders from the government, academia, industry, local authorities, regulators and the public have been united in calling for shorter and more accessible environmental assessment
reports. However, a majority of these stakeholders have also made it clear that they do not want to see a reduction in environmental protection. Therefore, the challenge over recent years has been how to achieve a proportionate level of assessment and reporting, without reducing the quality of assessment as a tool for environmental protection.
