  • Management strategies regarding aspects of the radiation protection program
  • Risk management and communication, education and awareness
  • Successful program initiatives that improve occupational and public dose control
  • Discussion on effective training programs
  • Lessons learned from emergency or unplanned situations,
  • New developments in radiobiology, protection technologies and innovation
  • Discussion of regulatory expectations and objectives
  • Emergency preparedness and response

Presentations and posters on other aspects of radiation protection are also welcome and encouraged.
