[Scott, Bobby]

10th International Conference on Health Effects of Incorporated
Radionuclides (HEIR)

 

http://www.lrri.org/heir/ <http://www.lrri.org/heir/> 

 

The HEIR 2009 conference will address subjects related to: 

 

*Early and late-occurring health effects of radionuclides in man,
including knowledge being gained from epidemiological investigations,
cell and molecular studies, and measurement, bioassay and dose
assessment methods relevant to human populations.  

 

*Information from experimental animal studies concerning mechanisms of
deterministic and stochastic biological effects, dose-response
relationships, uniformity of radiation dose distribution including
microdosimetry, will be included.  

 

*New aspects of the use of radionuclides, particularly alpha-emitters,
in medical therapy will also be addressed.
