Welcome!

Welcome to the East Tennessee Chapter of the Health Physics Society (ETCHPS) Home Page.

The ETCHPS is a scientific and professional organization whose members specialize in occupational, environmental, and medical radiation safety. Our membership includes professionals involved in commercial, industrial, university, medical, and governmental radiation safety activities throughout eastern Tennessee. We are a regional affiliate of the Health Physics Society .

In keeping with the Health Physics Society's mission, "to encourage scientific, professional and public education" as it pertains to excellence in the science and practice of radiation safety, the ETCHPS has agreed to sponsor and support public outreach and training sessions in East Tennessee areas near nuclear facilities (i.e. Erwin, Oak Ridge and Chattanooga). Henry Lynn is organizing this effort and presented the idea to the chapter during the June 8, 2010 program meeting. The slides are included here for all to view. We are hoping to start training sessions in the fall of 2010.

Volunteers are needed to help develop materials or make presentations. Please let Henry know by sending a note to his home email address at henryslynn@comcast.net if you are willing to help.



We have reserved Clark Center for the 2nd Tuesday of the month, September 14th. Please mark your calendars for 6pm to dark and plan on being there!
