The STAR project finished on 31st July 2015 - page no longer being updated
 | The STAR project final dissemination event was held in beautiful Aix-en-Provence, 9-11 June 2015The event presented the results of the 4.5 year research programme and discussed with the wider community the continued integration of radioecology with other radiation protection disciplines. The programme was a mixture of presentations, discussions, debates, posters, interactive demonstrations and social events. The program can be consulted |
