4TH TRITIUM SCHOOL

We are glad to announce that the Tritium School is back for a Fourth edition! It will consist of five days: a first opening session dedicated to tritium introduction, followed by 4 days of invited lectures and contributed talks on topics ranging from tritium management, detection, waste handling, dosimetry, radiotoxicity and epidemiology. A visit to the CIEMAT laboratory will conclude the school on the last afternoon. The young generation of researchers working in fusion and fission research and development is encouraged to participate to gain knowledge and present challenges in the field of tritium.
