Dortmund physicist Florian Mentzel has been awarded the first place in the Young Investigator Award of the International Federation of Medical and Biological Engineering (IFMBE) at the IUPESM World Congress on Medical Physics & Biomedical Engineering. The award was given for the conference paper "A Step Towards Treatment Planning for Microbeam Radiation Therapy: Fast Dose Predictions with Generative Adversarial Networks," which was presented in the final round of the congress in Singapore.

The award-winning research paper in the field of radiation therapy was produced as part of a collaboration between Prof. Kröninger's research group and the Centre for Medical Radiation Physics (CMR) at the University of Wollongong in Australia. The IFMBE Young Investigator Award comes with a prize money of € 1,000.
