Biological effects of hyperthermia
The overall aim to study the biological effects of hyperthermia is to better understand the effectiveness of the treatment (science-based medicine) and to improve its use (treatment optimisation). The studies on hyperthermic effects encompass both in vitro molecular cell biological and in vivo animal studies.
