Newport, RI was a beautiful location for the November AARST Symposium. The New England weather was crisp and clear, brisk and windy.
The Symposium was well attended and received. The speakers were widely diversified and covered the spectrum of radon topics. The US EPA was a prominent presence promoting "Re-energize the Radon Industry". Advocate and radon-induced cancer survivor Elizabeth Hoffmann presented during the "Radon is Real: Another Look at Radon-Induced Illness" session. Drs. Prather and Eidbo, medical researchers from Iowa, presented their research on "Linkage-Multiple Sclerosis and Ionizing Radiation". CANSAR (Cancer Survivors Against Radon) was introduced. A break-out session entitled "Advanced Mitigation Tips" was standing room only. More information can be obtained at www.cansar.org.
I believe that the Proceedings from the 14th Annual International Radon Symposium can be purchased through AARST.
The 2005 Symposium is scheduled for San Diego, CA in September; the exact dates and location will be announced soon.
