Radiophobia
with Dr. Michael F. Hartshorne
Join us for an intriguing discussion of radiophobia, what is it and how it affects our world.
In recent years, a fear called radiophobia has emerged, causing heightened anxiety around ionizing radiation. Misconceptions about radiation physics and radiobiology have led to a sense of fear among some. Join Dr. Hartshorne as he discusses how this fear has impeded the progress of beneficial technologies such as nuclear power for addressing climate change, nuclear medicine for saving lives, and advancements in nuclear safety. Despite these challenges, is there hope for a more informed and balanced perspective on the benefits and risks associated with radiation-related technologies?
