Each year, the Student and Young Professionals Committee organizes a student paper contest in conjunction with the CRPA annual conference. Three finalists are selected to present their work at the conference in a plenary session. These are the abstracts submitted by this year’s finalists.
Each year, CRPA accepts nominations for the CRPA awards. Winners are announced at the annual CRPA conference. In this issue of the Bulletin, we introduce you to this year’s winners.
The Meritorious Service Award recognizes significant services provided to the Canadian Radiation Protection Association (CRPA) or to the radiation protection community in general. This year there were two recipients: Sunil Choubal and Jill Robertson.
Chief Editor Dave Niven interviews Tara Hargreaves, a new member of CRPA’s board of directors. Tara says, “CRPA is the way to connect with those working in radiation safety across Canada. . . I would feel rather alone if I weren’t a member.”
