Women in Nuclear: Unconscious Exclusion to Unconscious Inclusion
UNCONSCIOUS EXCLUSION TO UNCONSCIOUS INCLUSION: Why we exclude but don’t know it, and how to change Leadership is by its very nature inclusive, a leaders role is to enrol and mobilise others in service of specific goals and outcomes. However, even when we are committed to doing our best and leading well, in the unconscious we are wired to be exclusive under the smallest amounts of pressure or threat to our own state. To become more inclusive more of the…

Tuesday 10th December, 6pm Queens Building, University of Bristol Speaker: Professor Masahuaru Tsubokura, Fukushima Medical University Registration Registration for this event is via Eventbrite: Eventbrite page Talk Synopsis Health issues accompanying radiation disasters are not limited to radiation exposure but multifaceted with changes in living and social environments. The most serious problem, during the early stages of the Fukushima accident, involved the health effects of evacuation, especially among elderly people. A shortage of human and material resources and the need…

Fluid Mechanics of Cleaning and Decontamination Workshop
Cleaning and decontamination processes are critically important to a wide range of different applications. Environmental decontamination is an essential step following the accidental or deliberate release of a hazardous material, and developing cleaning processes that are both efficient and effective is a key aspect of manufacturing pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, cosmetics, and a wide range of different foods. Since most cleaning agents are applied as fluids (either as liquids or vapours, or in aqueous solutions), fluid mechanics underpins the delivery and…

Integrating measurements and atmospheric-dispersion modelling to enhance the UK response to radiological atmospheric releases Both radiological measurements and atmospheric-dispersion modelling provide essential information following a radiological atmospheric release. They both have strengths and weaknesses. Integrating measurements and modelling will better characterise the source location, quantities of radionuclides released, and area impacted than using either measurement data or atmospheric-dispersion modelling outputs alone. This one-day event aims to: • Assess current strengths and limitations of measurements and modelling • Present recent…
