The NERIS Workshop 2022 was held as a satellite workshop of ERPW for half a day on Monday 10th October 2022 morning (9:00 - 13:00). It gathered around 70 people from the community and from ERPW attendance.
The Workshop was split in two sessions: “Uncertainty quantification, data assimilation, monitoring strategies, and inverse modelling” and “Lessons learned and optimization of management strategies”.
13 speakers presented their work linked with these thematic, and time for discussions will be used to reflect on these advancements and their use for the NERIS research agenda and the broader Joint research agenda.
We have the pleasure to share with you the press release related to the launch of the PIANOFORTE research partnership, on June 14, 2022 in Paris. This partnership has the ambition to improve knowledge and promote innovation in the field of radiation protection for the benefit of better protection of the public, patients, workers and the environment in all scenarios of exposure to ionizing radiation.
The members of the NERIS Management Board wish to express their solidarity with the entire Ukrainian people in their resistance for freedom in the face of a dreadful and unprovoked invasion.
We would also like to salute and praise all the courageous staff, scientists and researchers that, with an elevated sense of duty and responsibility, are making all the efforts possible to ensure the radiological protection, safety and security, which are also ours, worldwide.
