For authors of abstracts from Pacifi c Rim countries the same<br />

criteria apply but the abstract must now be sponsored by a<br />

member of their National Radiation Research Society or a RRS<br />

member and indicate in the ‘Sponsor’ box on submission.<br />

Be sure to indicate the name of the person who is to present the<br />

paper — it will be underlined in the printed program book. The<br />

name of each non-member will be followed by an asterisk (*)<br />

of commercial messages or inappropriate references to specifi c<br />

products, services, or commercial concerns.<br />

The title should be in lower case letters with only the fi rst word<br />

capitalized. EXAMPLE: Temperature dependence of ionizing<br />

radiation effect on dry preparations of bacterial enzymes.<br />

The body of the abstract should be single-spaced. Tables, graphs,<br />

and structural <strong>for</strong>mulae may not be included, although simple<br />

mathematical <strong>for</strong>mulae are acceptable.<br />

• Physico-chemical events<br />

• Mutagenesis/clastogenesis/carcinogenesis<br />

• Cell and tissue kinetics/signaling/microenvironment<br />

• Bystander effects/adaptive responses<br />

• DNA damage induction, repair and the DNA damage response<br />

• Radiation protection – biodosimetry<br />

• Radiation protection - protectors/mitigators/treatment<br />

• High LET/space radiation effects/dose rate effects<br />

• Stem cells<br />

• Experimental therapeutics and translational research<br />

• Epidemiology<br />

Presentation<br />
