Download
After years spent being the sole global authority, the UN Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR), has evolved into deciding “what’s good and what’s bad” in a crowded field.
That’s according to UNSCEAR’s Secretary, Malcolm Crick, as the committee celebrates its 60th year.

Deganit Perez asked Mr Crick to describe the Committee’s role in more detail.
