Renate Czarwinski, IRPA 16 Program Chair
The IRPA 16 Congress to be held in Orlando, Florida, 7–12 July 2024 is an important international conference, attracting radiation protection practitioners from around the world. This is an opportunity to share practices, reconnect with colleagues and friends, and build your network.
For this congress, the topics of safety and security of radioactive sources have been combined with industrial, agricultural, veterinary, aerospace, and military applications into a main congress area theme. The organizers received almost 70 abstracts, 20 of which were selected to be oral presentations delivered in parallel sessions for the various topics mentioned above. The remaining abstracts will be offered as poster presentations. It was a difficult task selecting the final oral presentations as all abstracts were of high quality. The decision was based on the review of at least three experts in this area.
Speakers from 11 countries will be giving presentations on a wide range of topics in four separate sessions: on standards, directives, and regulations; on industrial, veterinary, and space applications; on military applications; and on safety and security of radioactive sources.
There will also be exciting presentations on radiation protection issues at accelerator facilities.
This is a great opportunity to meet in person with radiation protection practitioners from all over the world to discuss a great variety of topics and share experiences.
