2006-05-13 - Radioprotection
[ 15-19 May 2006, Paris, France ]Theme : Radiation protection : From knowledge to action
The Second European International Radiation Protection Association (IRPA) Congress, helt in Paris, from May 15 th to May 19 th 2006, was organised by the French Society for Radiation Protection (SFRP).
This European Congress, a global forum on the Radiological Protection field, was a unique opportunity to present papers on and debate about all those subjects which will determine the future of this speciality, ranging from the scientific data and questions about biological radiation effects, to the regulation and practice of radiation protection.
This included the control of exposure to natural radiation, to professional and medical radiations, the evolution of the radiological protection system, the protection against non-ionising radiations and the participation of the public with respect to more sensitive questions.
This multidisciplinary approach, which covered a broad panel of skills, gave the opportunity to propose a “Radiation Protection: from Knowledge to Action ” tour.
The programme included radioecology relevant topics such as:
TA-1: Radiation effects
TA-2: Radiological protection systems and regulation
TA-6: Radiation Protection of the public and the environment
