The Europaische Akademie Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler GmbH is concerned
with the scientific study ofthe consequences of scientific and
technological advance for the individual, society and the natural
environment and, therefore, not least with the study of
consequences of recent developments in life-sciences and medical
disci- plines. The Europaische Akademie intends to contribute to
find a rational way for society to deal with the consequences of
scientific progress. This aim is mainly realised by proposing
recommendations for options of action with long-term social
acceptance. The work of the Europaische Akademie mostly takes place
in tempo- rary interdisciplinary project groups, whose members are
recognised scientists from European universities and other
independent institutes. In the light of recent discussions on the
validity of scientific assumptions con- cerning the extrapolation
ofharmful effects into the low-dose range the Europais- che
Akademie set up a project on "Lew-Dose Exposures in the Environment
their Risk Assessments and Regulatory Processes" in January 2001.
Experts ofradiobi- ology, toxicology, medical epidemiology,
modelling,jurisprudence, psychology and philosophy from different
European countries wcre brought together to discuss cur- rent
scientific developments in environmental standard setting and risk
evaluation of substances and ionising radiation at very low doses
in order to ensure rational, efficient, and fair decisions. I am
glad that by means ofthis memorandum, that continues our work on
envi- ronmental standards and after our recommendations with
respect to the regulation ofcombined agents we can now focus on the
effects and the regulation ofharmful agents in the very low-dose
range.
