HIGHLIGHTS
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we are delighted to invite you to participate in the 48th European Radiation Research Society Meeting, scheduled to take place from the 10th till the 13th of September at the University of Aveiro, located in the beautiful city of Aveiro, Centre Portugal. This conference will be jointly organized by CESAM from the University of Aveiro and GreenUPorto from the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto. The Organizing Committee will also have the collaboration of EDM company, responsible by restoring and managing uranium mining legacies in Portugal.
A friendly atmosphere fosters collaboration and innovation. Our goal is to ensure that you feel comfortable and inspired throughout the conference. Together, at ERRS2024, we will present and discuss the main and most recent findings and scientific research outcomes that account for our overall capability to address both the present and the future global challenges in radiation research on various fields. As such, we have a fantastic lineup of research topics, that go from space radiation and radiation physics to clinical, environmental and societal aspects, covering a wide range of radiation research areas.
As usual at ERRS meetings, several young investigator awards (YIA) will be attributed by ERRS and for the first time the European Space Agency (ESA) will confer at least two awards to the Space Radiation topic. Best poster presentations will also be awarded by the ERRS2024 scientific committee.
Thank you in advance for your participation, and we look forward to meeting you in Aveiro at the ERRS2024
Don’t miss this exciting scientific journey—be part of it!
Warm regards,
On behalf of the organizing committee
