2008 N ASA Space Radiation Summer School
Applications are being sought for the 2008 NASA Space Radiation
Summer School, a three-week course designed to offer graduate
students, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty an integrated curriculum of
radiation biology, radiation chemistry, and physics culminating in hands-
on accelerator-based experiments using the synchrotron facility at the
6th INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON
NASA Space Radiation Laboratory. Up to 15 students will be selected
for the course to be held May 28 – June 20, 2008 at the Brookhaven
TARGETED ANTICANCER THERAPIES
National Laboratory (BNL) on Long Island, New York. Topics will
include DNA damage and repair, genotoxicity measurements, cell cycle

exposure to space radiation, as well as the space radiation environment,
physics and biochemistry of charged particle interaction with condensed
matter, ionizing radiation dosimetry, and accelerator operations. Course
faculty will consist of leading university and national laboratory
biologists and physicists actively engaged in NASA space radiation
research and BNL experts in heavy ion experimentation and methods.
