From Vision to Action: Strategic Priorities and New Developments in Radiation Protection Metrology
The European Metrology Network for Radiation Protection (EMN Radiation Protection) serves as a single point of contact under EURAMET, providing metrology solutions for radiation protection, fostering a coordinated, sustainable, and smartly specialised infrastructure. By working closely with regulators, stakeholders, and international organisations, the network advances standards, improves risk assessment, and enables more effective emergency responses, while strengthening radiation protection, enhancing measurement quality, and supporting cost-effective, evidence-based decision-making.
This newsletter highlights recent developments, including the publication of the Strategic Research Agenda, the development of the Service Portal, ongoing research, and future priorities. It illustrates how EMN Radiation Protection continues to support Europe’s radiation protection system, by ensuring quality assurance in radiation measurements: to make radiation protection fit for future by tackling new challenges.
