He can always look up my papers on PubMed to see if he thinks I'm credible"

  Subject: DOE funding hormesis research in Australia??


  Friends,

   

  I found no info on this news report in the Press Releases or other news sources on the Flinders web site provided.  Does anyone have other info on DOE research that would confirm or question this report?  If there is such a research project, do you know if the research is credible?

  Let's get radioactive
  HERALD-SUN Australia  22aug05

  SMALL doses of radiation may be a tonic for the human body, says an Adelaide researcher who has won a $1.33 million grant to prove the theory.

  The American Department of Energy is funding the research at Flinders Medical Centre, which has found extremely small doses of radiation may actually be good for the body.
