Scope and ideas of the workshop The workshop which took place at
the University of Giessen from Oct. 3 to Oct. 7, 2002 and whose
proceedings are collected in this volume started from the idea to
convene a number of scientists with the aim to outline their
"visions" for the future of radiation research on the basis of
their expertise. As radiation research is a very wide field
restrictions were unavoidable. It was decided to concentrate this
time mainly on molecular and cellular biology because it was felt
that here action is par-ticularly needed. This did not exclude
contributions from neighbouring fields as may be seen from the
table of contents. It was clearly not planned to have a c-
prehensive account of the present scientif fic achievements but the
results presented should only serve as a starting point for the
discussion of future lines of research, with the emphasis on the
"outreach" to other parts of life sciences. If you are interested
in the future ask the young - we attempted, therefore, to invite
mainly younger colleagues (with a few exceptions) who had, however,
already left their marks in the field. They were asked to describe
what they felt is important in radiation research and may have
significant influences on other branches of life sciences. They
were given the task to demonstrate what is lost for science "if we
do no longer exist".
