The ETRAP2005 Programme is online.

With 35 oral presentations, 8 panel discussions, a plenary debate and an extended collection of posters and educational material demos and displays, ETRAP2005 promises to be this year's place-to-be in Europe if you want to be part of the dynamics with regard to the science and policy of education and training in radiological protection.

We thank all the contributors for their input. They provide the basis for a conference that promises to generate a stimulating flux of ideas and initiatives that should lead to a harmonised recognition and optimised use of skills and professional experience in connection with the peaceful use of applications of radioactivity.

Of course, in addition to our international and high level group of speakers, poster presenters and session chairs, we need you to be there too ! Register now and ensure your place in the group in November in Brussels.

We are glad to announce that representatives of the European Commission, the NEA/OECD, the IAEA and the International Radiation Protection Association (IRPA) will deliver keynote speeches to the conference.

In addition, we received a set of excellent abstracts, promising a varied, dynamic and high level event. A warm thanks to all the contributers. The program will be build within the coming months.

Please note that it is still possible to send in proposals to present educational material on radiological protection (courses, books, software applications, …) during the conference. The material will be on display in the poster and coffee break room, right next to the plenary room.
