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.
The Gozani Family Graduate Scholarship was established in 2020 by the Isotopes and Radiation Division (IRD) for students enrolled in or proposing to undertake research in radioanalytical chemistry, analytical chemistry, or analytical applications of nuclear science.
Dr. Tsahi Gozani, PhDDr. Tsahi Gozani has authored more than 250 papers in technical journals and conference proceedings. He is the inventor and/or the co-inventor on eight patents (plus 3 pending) in the area of explosives and nuclear material detection.Dr. Gozani was promoted to ANS Fellow in 1990, for his original and innovative contributions to the development of non-destructive methods for the detection of nuclear materials relevant to nuclear safeguards, nuclear assay methods for online analysis of coal and other minerals, and nuclear methods for the detection of explosives in airline luggage.Dr. Gozani recently retired from Rapiscan Laboratories where he served as President, CTO, and chief scientist. In addition to sitting on the Phoenix board, he provides technical consultation to Phoenix scientists and engineers. He earned his DSc in Reactor/Neutron Physics from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH). He has developed and implemented active, non-intrusive assay and inspection techniques for nuclear materials and other threats relevant to defense and homeland security.
