Program Registration Exhibition Venues
ICNIRP is organizing the 7th International NIR Workshop from 9-11 May 2012, Edinburgh, hometown of James Clerk Maxwell, Scotland.
Experts from all relevant scientific disciplines (i.e. physics & engineering, biology and epidemiology) will present the most recent advances of research and protection in the different areas of NIR, including electromagnetic fields and optical radiation. In the last few years, ICNIRP has revised most of its protection guidelines, and the workshop will provide participants with a comprehensive overview of updated recommendations, methodology for their development, scientific rationale, and recommended restrictions on exposure.
2012 will mark ICNIRP’s 20th anniversary. Since its inception in 1992 the Commission has provided scientific advice on all NIR, and developed guidelines that are now largely in use around the world. It has maintained and asserted itself as an authoritative, interest-free organization in NIR protection. Its activities will continue with monitoring of research, refinement of the protection methods, and assistance in the development of health policies worldwide.
With the contribution of all ICNIRP members, the workshop in Edinburgh will provide the attendants with a unique opportunity for extensive discussion of all issues related to NIR protection.
