Herbert Parker Lecture: Can We Really "Calculate? a Risk?
2026-04-15 18:00 | East Auditorium, 2710 University Dr, Richland, WA, 99354, United States
How do scientific models translate into real-world decisions? Using internal dosimetry as a case study, this lecture explores how radiation risk is quantified — and where calculation meets judgement.
Led by François Paquet, Deputy Director for Research and Expertise in the Environment at the French Nuclear Safety and Radiation Protection Authority (ASNR, France), Paquet is a globally recognized expert in radiological protection and internal disometry. He serves as Vice Chair of ICRP Committee 2 and Chair of the ICRP Task Group on Internal Dosimetry, and has authored more than 180 peer-reviewed publications. This event is free and open to the community. Join us in-person at WSU Tri-Cities or watch online. Sponsored by the Herbert M. Parker Foundation in partnership with Washington State University Tri-Cities, the Parker Lectures honor distinguished scientists, memorialize Mr. Parker’s contributions to radiation protection, and enhance public understanding of radiological issues.
