European Platform on preparedness for nuclear and radiological emergency response and recovery
The mission of the NERIS Platform is to establish a forum for dialogue and methodological development between all European organisations and associations taking part in decision making of protective actions in nuclear and radiological emergencies and recovery in Europe.
The 11th NERIS Workshop will take place at The Cumberland in London, as a satellite meeting of ERPW 2025, hosted by UKHSA on 29th September (full day).
For this year, the Workshop will be partly dedicated to PIANOFORTE projects related to NERIS activities:
From Call 1: CITISTRA, RRADEW, PREDICT,
From Call 2: CATAPULT, GIROSCOPE
The Workshop will also cover topics related to ongoing developments from members of the platform and invovle international organisations. A full agenda will be sent in the coming months.
Registrations to the Workshop will start together with ERPW registrations.
Concerning ERPW 2025 itself, further information on the venue, registrations, the future programme and modalities for submiting abstracts are (and will be) provided on ERPW 2025 website.
The report from the DSA-NEA Joint Workshop on Radiological Protection During Armed Conflict, held on 22-24 November 2023 in Oslo, Norway, is now published.
The report relates key discussions, insights, and recommendations from the workshop, reflecting the collective expertise and contributions of participants.
As you may already know, the MEENAS umbrella (MELODI, EURADOS, EURAMED, NERIS, ALLIANCE and SHARE) will have its 3rd and final webinar to showcase and promote the SRAs of the platforms in 2024, concerning “Strategic Research Plans for Research in Radiation Dosimetryand Nuclear and Radiological Emergency Response and Recovery”.
This webinar will take place online on October17thfrom 16:00–18:00 CEST.
It will cover the strategic research plans for radiation dosimetry research outlined in the EURADOS SRA and the roadmap for emergency response and recovery research represented in the NERIS SRA. The SRAs as well as interlinks between them and connections to other areas and organisations will be presented and discussed during the webinar.
The webinar is free of charge, but registration is required through the following Zoom link :
The 6th International Symposium on the Ethics of Environmental Health will be held in conjunction with a workshop on “Ethics of Environmental Health in Armed Conflict Situations,” will be organised as part of RRADEW ("Resilience to RADiological Events in Wartime"), a project supported by PIANOFORTE ("European Partnership for Radiation Protection Research.") Co-sponsors will be SHARE (a European Network for "Social Sciences and Humanities in ionising radiation REsearch") and the University of South Bohemia.
It will be held in Budweis, Czech Republic on 8 – 11 September 2024.

PIANOFORTE is organizing the workshop on “Artificial Intelligence and Radiation Protection” aiming at presenting and discussing current and future artificial intelligence implementations in various sectors of radiation protection, that include medical applications, radiation dosimetry, radiobiology, radioecology, emergency preparedness, response and recovery.
The workshop objectives are to:
delineate the relevance and applicability of artificial intelligence and big data technologies in radiation protection domains and identify the thematic areas that appear to be more susceptible to artificial intelligence implementations,
identify and develop links with scientific communities specializing on artificial intelligence and big data technologies,
promote the artificial intelligence uptake and application in the 3rd PIANOFORTE open call
The workshop will be organized by NCSR “Demokritos” on its premises in Agia Paraskevi, Attica, Greece, on 18 and 19 April 2024 comprising thematic presentations followed by discussion sessions that include:
the state-of-the-art of artificial intelligence applications in radiation protection
deliberations on future research directions that will be considered in the formulation of the topics to be funded under the 3rd PIANOFORTE open call
