Re: Academic or medical loss of license

Regarding the university and broad scope licenses.  Give a call to the NIH
and MIT.  Both had incidents with researchers where were internally
contaminated with P-32.  I believe that the NRC placed additional security
restrictions on both licenses.  It is best to pick up the telephone and
call their RSO's.  Frank Massey is at MIT.  I don't remember who is at the NIH
