The U.S. Million Person Study of Low-Dose-Rate Health Effects
There is a critical knowledge gap regarding the health consequences of exposure to radiation received gradually over time. While there is a plethora of studies on the risks of adverse outcomes from both acute and high-dose exposures, including the landmark study of atomic bomb survivors, these are not characteristic of the chronic exposure to low-dose radiation encountered in occupational and public settings. In addition, smaller cohorts have limited numbers leading to reduced statistical power.
We are a team of researchers and engineers who aim to develop innovative technologies for various sectors of the energy industry. Our solutions address the needs of a new generation of energy production, storage, and transportation, with a focus on emerging materials and technologies. We have expertise in areas such as SMRs, ATF, thermal-hydraulic measurements, high temperature and other challenging techniques, modeling and simulations, multiphase flow modeling/benchmarking, unique simulation heater rods for diverse testing and experiments, and high-performance spacer design, modeling, testing, and qualification for SMR, fast reactor, ATF, and other advance fuel designs. We are committed to creating safe and sustainable energy for the future.
