The USTUR’s director, Sergei Tolmachev, attended the International Commission on Radiological Protection’s (ICRP) 3rd International Symposium on the System of Radiological protection in Seoul, South Korea, October 20-22, 2015. This symposium was “an opportunity to hear about ICRP’s recommendations and work-in-progress directly from ICRP members, to have your views on this work heard, and to network with ICRP members and radiological protection colleagues from all parts of the world.”1 Topics included the science behind radiation doses, and new developments in understanding radiation effects. Between sessions, Dr. Tolmachev discussed plans for future collaborative research.
