Call for IIS Lecturers for Workshops and short courses.

“The mission and principal aims of the International Isotope Society are to encourage throughout the scientific community the advancement in knowledge of the synthesis, measurement, and applications of isotopes and isotopically labeled compounds through the effective promotion of awareness and actions on key issues by providing a communications network and forum through its membership. Overall, the International Isotope Society aims to promote the uses of isotopes and isotopically labeled compounds for studies to further improve the quality of life worldwide”(quote from the IIS Mission statement).

These principles were applied by the IIS until now by organizing regular international symposia as well as local chapter meetings. During some of these meetings, short courses and workshops were also organized catering mostly to the general profile and participation of the IIS membership.

Recently the BoT has decided to extend these activities and broaden its reach to Universities. The IIS is seeking among its members volunteers for guest lecturers to support Radiochemistry, Radiosynthesis, Nuclear Medicine, related topics, etc. programs in interested Universities and Summer Schools such as the ACS summer schools organized in the past by the joint effort of Professor Mantica of Michigan State University at San Jose State University and Brookhaven National Laboratory. Those interested in supporting these courses or proposing other courses are encouraged to contact the ongoing IIS President and Dr. Scott Landwater as well as any member of the Board of Representatives that are listed in the IIS Website.
