@SETUIreland @SETUPhysics @SETU_Research @RyanInstitute @UCD_physics @EPAResearchNews Highlights:
- Activity concentrations and concentration factors for Po-210 reported in 12 seaweeds with 6 species previously unreported
- Human ingestion dose estimate performed based on seaweed consumption
- No significant radiological risk from consumption of edible seaweeds

Our first paper, "Dosimetric implications of human ingestion of the natural radionuclide polonium-210 from commercially important and edible seaweeds", has just been published on results from 12 seaweed species and found no risk from seaweed consumption.

Very proud to have won the European Radioecology Alliance's first place poster award at the ICRER Conference in Marseille, presenting results of radionuclide concentrations in various seaweeds collected from the Irish coastline
