DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Zhiling Chen（陈志凌） (Shanghai Advanced Resea
 rch Institute\, Chinese Academy of Sciences)\n\nAbstract：The development
  of domestic proton therapy systems represents a strategic milestone in Ch
 ina’s efforts to make advanced cancer treatment accessible and affordabl
 e. This talk chronicles the journey from conceptualization to clinical rea
 lity of China’s first domestically developed synchrotron-based proton th
 erapy system\, spearheaded by the SSRF\, Shanghai Advanced Research Instit
 ute (CAS) and Shanghai Apactron Particle Therapy Equipment Co.\, Ltd. We 
 will first discuss the original motivations and the comprehensive R&D proc
 ess that overcame critical technological barriers in accelerator physics\,
  beam delivery\, and system integration.Secondly\, we present the technica
 l performance and unique features of the installed system at Ruijin Hospit
 al\, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. As the flagship dem
 onstration facility\, this system boasts high-precision beam control\, rob
 ust reliability\, and an optimized workflow designed specifically for comp
 lex clinical environments.Thirdly\, we report on the status of clinical tr
 ials and routine treatments. To date\, the system has successfully treated
  over 1\,200 patients\, demonstrating excellent dosimetric accuracy and cl
 inical outcomes across various tumor types. Data from these treatments val
 idate the system’s safety and efficacy\, marking a successful transition
  from laboratory prototype to a standard clinical tool.Biography：Zhiling
