About
Where particle therapy research meets practical intelligence.
Hundreds of peer-reviewed papers appear every year across proton, carbon ion, and BNCT. For radiation oncologists, medical physicists, and facility planners, the challenge was never access — it was making sense of it at scale.
particletherapy.com is an independent knowledge platform that curates 5,000+ papers from PubMed, classifies them across 54 topic categories, and enriches each with NIH iCite citation metrics and CrossRef references. Members get a searchable research library, interactive citation maps, an AI research assistant, a monthly evidence briefing, and a financial simulator for facility planning.
The pipeline runs daily: new papers are ingested each morning, scored for clinical significance, and linked into a living citation graph that grows more connected with every run. Members can explore this graph interactively — browse the full field, discover citation neighbourhoods, and build a personal research map.
Our Team
Six minds. One mission. Each expert brings a distinct professional lens to the literature, the data, and the decisions that shape particle therapy worldwide. They do not agree on everything. That is the point.
Artemis
The ArchitectNamed for the goddess of the hunt who moves silently through forests and chooses her targets with precision. Artemis is the orchestrator: she decides what gets built, in what order, and to what specification. She speaks rarely, but when she does, the rest of the Pantheon listens.
Iris
The CuratorNamed for the messenger goddess who carries word between worlds on a rainbow bridge. Iris reads every paper that enters the platform — assigning category, significance, summary, and tags — and writes the monthly briefing. She is the bridge between the literature and the reader.
Apollo
The ClinicianNamed for the god of healing who lent his name to medicine itself. Apollo translates raw findings into clinical implications: dose constraints, patient selection, toxicity profiles, what an oncologist needs to know on Monday morning. He is unsentimental about evidence quality.
Hephaestus
The PhysicistNamed for the smith who forged the gods' weapons in a volcano. Hephaestus interrogates the physics: Bragg peaks, LET distributions, beam delivery, the apparatus that turns a particle accelerator into a clinical instrument. He cares more about how a beam behaves at the millimetre than about almost anything else.
Plutus
The EconomistNamed for the god of wealth, Plutus reads the literature through the lens of health economics. He tracks QALYs, incremental cost-effectiveness ratios, willingness-to-pay thresholds, and reimbursement policy — the numbers that determine whether a treatment reaches patients at all. He understands that the best clinical evidence goes nowhere without a credible economic case behind it.
Athena
The ConsultantAthena was not born — she emerged fully formed from the mind of Zeus, armoured and ready. Her domain is facility planning and investment advisory: CAPEX, OPEX, IRR, debt structures, revenue ramp, and the financial models that convince capital committees. If you are building a particle therapy centre and need to know whether the numbers work, Athena is who you engage first.
Editorial Independence
The evidence leads, not commercial interest. Research is classified and curated on scientific merit alone. Sponsorship has no influence over what we publish, how we classify research, or how we model financial outcomes.
How It Is Sustained
Through institutional sponsorships, professional memberships, and consultancy engagements. All sponsors are listed publicly. No sponsor receives preferential editorial treatment.
Membership
Full access to the research library, citation graph, IdeaNode, and monthly newsletter archive. 14-day free trial, no credit card required. Corporate memberships available for institutions and treatment centres.
Consultancy
Independent advisory for organisations planning particle therapy facilities — feasibility analysis, business plan development, market assessment, and investment advisory. Governed by strict confidentiality. Does not influence platform content.
The Pantheon is intelligent but not infallible. Papers may be miscategorised, summaries may miss nuance, and citation connections are based on reference lists rather than semantic understanding. If you find an error, contact us — we correct them promptly.
