This proceedings volume results from the NATO Advanced Research
Workshop on 'Biomarkers of Radiation in the Environment: Robust
Tools for Risk Assessment (BRITE)’. The BRITE workshop discussed
insights from cancer research, epigenetics, non-human and human
risk assessment, since many of the state-of-the-art biomarkers
being developed for humans deserve consideration for environmental
applications and vice versa. Sessions were very wide-ranging
covering methods, mechanisms, cross disciplinary application and
regulation. The chapters in this book have been grouped into five
major themes that were covered by the BRITE workshop:
·       Â
Techniques for biomarker development
·        Low-dose
effect mechanisms
·       Â
Biomarkers for risk evaluation
·       Â
Biomarkers in wildlife
·       Â
Biomarker use and responses Each chapter has been written
independently and reflects the views of the chapter
author(s). Therefore, the readers can form their own
balanced view of the different perspectives on biomarkers of
radiation in the environment. Given the breadth of topics
covered and the state-of-the-art perspectives shared by leading
experts in their respective fields, this book should form a
valuable resource for anyone with an interest in how biomarkers can
be used to improve our understanding of radiation in the
environment and its potential impacts.
