Online radiation courses: Registration now open

Mary Olson of Gender and Radiation Impact Project and Cindy Folkers of Beyond Nuclear are teaming up to teach Radiation Information for Everyone (RIFE) — Online Short Courses on Radiation, Biology and Society. The two have decades of experience via work, study, and engagement with impacted communities and nuclear policy processes. They will invite colleagues to join in teaching–these are more than a webinar with an audience. Hear Mary and Cindy interviewed on Nuclear Hotseat.
