Kasetsart University, Bangkok, Thailand
Co-organized by Kasetsart University, (KU, the University of Agriculture to promote the “Knowledge of the Land” for the well-being of the nation and the global community) and the International Irradiation Association (iia), the pre-conference training course on radiation processing of materials primarily intends to create synergies with IMRP20 through the complementarity of the scientific and technological contents.
The 3-day long training course will offer a condensed overview of radiation processing applied to material enhancement. It will emphasize the physical phenomena, the chemical mechanisms and the technological aspects of radiation processing. The attendees will thus have the keys for apprehending the sessions on advanced radiation chemistry that will be presented the following week during IMRP20. The course will strengthen participants’ capabilities to carry out their academic or professional activities with a strengthened background.
Target Audience
Graduate students (MSc, PhD) and young professionals with a background in physics, chemistry, biology, engineering with strong interest and motivation to acquire additional skills in the field of radiation processing. Several traineeships might become available. More information will be provided here in the coming weeks.
Depending on the number of registrants, the course might also be open to other professionals seeking complementary knowledge or specialization.
Radiation processing for advanced and renewable materials – From basics to industrialization.
The program will be composed of lectures, tutorials, demos and technical visits organized over three days. The lectures will be given by international and local experts from academia, research and industry.
