Description

1946: Radiation protection and effects

Paul Galyon, left, holds a paper strip from which smear tabs are stamped and used to collect samples of radioactivity.

ORNL elevates research efforts to protect people from exposure to unsafe levels of radiation, focusing on radiation tolerance, radiation protection services and training, and the development of new methods to measure radiation exposure. At the same time, concerns about health effects of radiation from reactors, atomic weapons testing, and radioactive elements that enter the body spur the development of a broad biological research program.
