Re: Research using RAM



Larry -
 
Do you know if the Campus Radiation Safety Officers (CRSO) group (www.crso.org) keeps track of these things? I would think they would have as good a handle on the research at their institutions as anyone.
 
Getting down to the level of looking at government research and private, commercial research would be a real bear ... I know we've licensed a lot of agricultural research, mostly using C-14, here in Georgia ... as I'm sure other states and the NRC have ... but putting all that together would be a horrendous task.
 
My $0.013 worth (discounted from $0.02 worth ... it's been a long day!)

Hi all: here's an off the wall question. 

Does anyone know of a government agency or scientific body that maintains a list,i.e. titles, of all research that involved the use of radioactive materials?  Even a partial list would be cool.  Such a list could be a powerful tool when showing the benefits of RAM.  If somebody could give me even a decent guess at how many science studies have used RAM, that would be of use.  It has to be in the hundreds of thousands, maybe millions.

I was looking at UCLA's present day use of RAM in research and I am guessing we have at least a thousand studies going on which use RAM.  Can you imagine the number world wide?  Whew!
