Article Abstract
Background: Radiotherapy (RT) is a central pillar of a multimodal cancer treatment approach. The ongoing advances in the fields of RT, imaging technologies, cancer biology, and others yield the potential to refine the use of RT. The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) hosted a dedicated workshop to identify and prioritize key research questions and to define future RT-based treatment strategies to improve the survival and quality of life of cancer patients.
Methods: An initial call for relevant RT research topics led to the formation of workgroups to develop these into new clinical research proposals and projects. The EORTC Radiation Oncology Scientific Council (ROSC) State of Science workshop was held in Brussels, Belgium, in February 2024, bringing together EORTC members and international stakeholders to connect and work on the proposals.
Results: Four topics of interest were identified: I) De-escalation of RT, minimizing toxicity while maintaining patients' quality of life, II) Technology-driven RT utilizing advances in treatment techniques, such as spatially fractionated RT to improve outcomes in patients with bulky disease and localized high tumor burden, III) Biology-driven RT, integrating the rapid advances in cancer biology and functional imaging to guide and personalize RT, and IV) New indications adding value and expanding the use of RT.
Conclusion: The EORTC ROSC State of Science workshop prioritized clinical questions to be addressed in prospective clinical research projects to advance RT care and improve patient outcomes.

Transient electronics that can degrade after fulfilling their designed functionalities offer transformative potentials in biomedical implants (eliminating secondary surgeries), ecofriendly consumer electronics (reducing e-waste), and secure systems. However, the development of reliable transient energy supplies remains a critical challenge, thus limiting their widespread implementation. Among various solutions, wireless power supplies via near-field inductive coupling stand out as particularly promising candidates.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic forced the world to quarantine to slow the rate of transmission, causing communities to transition into virtual spaces. Asian American and Pacific Islander communities faced the additional challenge of discrimination that stemmed from racist and xenophobic rhetoric in the media. Limited data exist on technology use among Asian American and Pacific Islander adults during the height of the COVID-19 shelter-in-place period and its effect on their physical and mental health.
