Legacy and Innovation in Radiation Protection

The ARPS Conference provides a forum that allows us to discuss our experiences, and review our concepts and ideas. The Scientific Committee will be seeking to create a program that addresses a spread of issues and professional experiences that attract a broad discipline of delegates. The Scientific Committee would therefore like to take this opportunity to invite you to submit an abstract based on the themes below.
