Actions > Annual Meetings > Meeting 2008

The EURADOS Annual Meeting 2008 took place from 21 to 25 January 2008 in Paris, France.

 

EURADOS convened its Annual Meeting 2008 (AM2008) in cooperation with IRSN.

 

This meeting included:

  • working group meetings

  • the General Assembly of EURADOS

  • periodic Council and CONRAD project management meetings

 

The scientific Symposium, Achievements of the CONRAD coordination action, was that time focused on the results achieved by the working groups coordinated within the EC-supported action CONRAD (ref. 12684, FP6, 01/2005 to 03/2008). It covered the topics of computational dosimetry, internal dosimetry and complex mixed radiation fields at workplaces

During that meeting, EURADOS organized its 2nd Winter School focused on “RETROSPECIVE DOSIMETRY”.
