About the Activity & the Call for Experts

Learn more about the activity here

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine is seeking suggestions for experts to participate in the new?study tasked with assessing radiation exposure of flight crew, potential health outcomes, and considerations of mitigation strategies. The committee will consider existing literature and data, as well as current computational methods, to evaluate and estimate radiation exposure of flight crew and the potential health outcomes from radiation exposure.  Using these suggestions, National Academies staff will be looking to build a committee of approximately 10 volunteer experts in addition to collecting information for potential speakers, participants, and peer reviewers for the publication resulting from the activity. 

Based on the Statement of Task, staff are looking for expertise particularly in the following areas:

Radiation Epidemiology 

Cancer Epidemiology 

Health Physics 

Computational modeling and radiation dose estimation 

Radiation Dosimetry

 Airline operations 

Occupational Health and Safety 

Radiation Risk Mitigation  

The National Academies value a wide range of perspectives to strengthen the quality of our work. We carefully consider alternative viewpoints when formulating advice, convening experts with differing experience and perspectives, providing oversight, and conducting all other activities, and strive to foster an environment where all can participate fully. We welcome your suggestions for a broad range of experts to work with us.
