The course TMS-VRS-D Research in ionizing radiation is basically meant for students from the faculty BMS (Biomedical Science). This course is spread over 4 weeks (every week 1 course day), and exam on day 4.
Program at a glance:
Introduction:
about the course set-up and the use of radiation in research
Lectures:
- about research methods with ionizing radiation
- about the effects of radiation and legislation
Practicals:
- 'Safe working’
- Transport Assay’
Response lectures:
- about practicals, lecture and excercises
E-learning:
- covering basic knowledge about radioactive decay, properties of radiation including shielding and uses of radiation. This e-learning is in part a refresher of secundary school physics, but also goes deeper into these subjects.
The course will be given online, with virtual classrooms. The practicals and the exam are 'live'.

Directions
In short
-
The course is intended for laboratory staff and students who work with open radioactive sources.
-
The course functions as 'information and training' which is mandatory for employees and students working with ionizing radiation without continuous supervision.
