Have you checked out the Health Physics Society web page Celebrating Women in Radiation Protection? Please take a few moments to navigate to it and learn more about some impressive women!

Our most recent article features Dr. Dunstana Melo, radiation dosimetrist, scientist, and businesswoman. You don't want to miss reading her biography—she was "on the ground" and intensively involved in the triage of the exposed population to cesium-137 during the 1987 incident in Goiania, Brazil.
