STAR Wildlife dosimetry workshop (held 10th-12th June 2014, CIEMAT, Madrid, Spain)
The workshop addressed a wide spectrum of questions related to the ionising radiation dose estimation in animals and plants, involving world leading experts in each of the subjects treated (see AGENDA). There were 30 participants from 12 countries (Belgium, Canada, USA, Spain, France, Germany, Japan, Norway, Portugal, United Kingdom, Russia and Sweden). MINUTES of the discussion session are now available. All presentations from the workshop can be found below: A STAR milestone milestone and deliverable associated with this workshop were published in Oct 2014.
