The 19th American Statistical Association’s 2010 conference on Radiation and Health focused on the human health effects of ionizing and non-ionizing radiation exposure. The purpose of these biennial conferences is to provide the latest information on new methodologies and research from diverse perspectives with the goal to create an understanding of the topic from a more global perspective. These viewpoints include the laboratory, the clinic and epidemiological studies of populations exposed to ionizing radiation from occupations, therapy or environmental contamination. The research scientists in attendance were statisticians, epidemiologists, physicians, risk assessors, biologists and physicists working in radiation research. Conference topics were selected by an Organizing Committee and reflected recent scientific advances or events evoking public concern. The meeting was devoted to the general theme of Radiation Exposures in Medicine: Biological and Public Health Significance with five scientific sessions in the mornings and the evenings. Contributed posters were discussed during one afternoon with other afternoons devoted to informal meetings and outdoor recreational activities. Nine new investigators were honored with travel awards to present their work, and Dr. Stephanie Lamart was chosen by the judging committee as the outstanding poster presenter. The conference keynote speaker, Dr. Dale Preston, delivered the evening banquet address entitled ‘‘Radiation Risk Estimation: Thoughts and Digressions’’. The five scientific sessions were (1) Exposure to medical personnel, patients, and the public: trends and issues, (2) Cancer and non-cancer late effects of therapeutic radiation, (3) Genetic susceptibility to radiation, (4) New technologies in radiation medicine, and (5) Low-dose radiation effects. Approximately 80 researchers attended the conference from the U.S., Japan, United Kingdom, Germany, Canada, Taiwan, The Netherlands and Brazil. The next meeting will be held in June 2012. A summary of each session follows.
