PhD student Eric Giunta gave a brief preview of his poster during the "Pooled international studies in epidemiology" session last week in Montreal, Canada. Eric did a great job presenting on his work, which involves upgrading radiation epidemiology tools to take advantage of high performance computing. The 17th International Congress for Radiation Research was an excellent opportunity to interface with radiation researchers from around the world!

Congratulations to Rajarshi Pal Chowdhury on his recently-accepted journal article! In this work, Dr. Pal Chowdhury presents the first detailed analysis of hybrid shielding methods to help protect astronauts from space radiation exposure.

Hybrid methods of radiation shielding against deep-space radiation In the last decade, NASA and other space exploration organizations have focused on making crewed missions to different locations of our solar system a…
