About the Hosts

The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP)
The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) was established in 1928 at the second International Congress of Radiology to respond to growing concerns about the effects of ionizing radiation being observed in the medical community. At the time it was called the International X-ray and Radium Protection Committee (IXRPC) but was restructured to better take account of uses of radiation outside the medical area and given its present name in 1950.

National Institute for Quantum Science and Technology (QST)
The National Institute for Quantum Science and Technology (QST) was established in April 2016 to promote quantum science and technology in a comprehensive and integrated manner. The new organization was formed from the merger of the National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS) with certain operations that were previously undertaken by the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA).
