> The guest dinner speaker is the President-Elect of the national HPS,
>Otto Raabe, Ph.D., from the University of California, Davis. His talk is
>entitled "Three-Dimensional Models of Radiation Risk." He will discuss the
>current debate about the applicability of the LNT hypothesis to chronic,
>low-level exposure. His three-dimensional models, based on animal and human
>data for internally deposited alpha- and beta-emitting nuclides, will show
>that there is an effective threshold for protracted exposure to ionizing
>radiation leading to the conclusion that exposure to low-levels of
>protracted ionizing radiation is "safer" than we have thought in the past
>based on the LNT hypothesis.
> Cost for paid-up, current RGC-HPS members is $20.00; non-members
>$25.00; Students $15.00. You need only indicate your intention to attend to
