Research
The subject of my PhD thesis is the genetic susceptibility to thyroid cancer after irradiation in childhood. This subject is composed of two main axes: Genetic interaction with therapeutic irradiation and with environmental irradiation. However, the effect of very low doses such as those received during diagnostic tests will also be studied.
