[PROJECT] TELOSENS - Telomeres and radiosensitivity of individuals
ID: FIGH-CT-2002-00217
Start date: 2003-01-01, End date: 2005-12-31
Risk estimate of radiation-induced cancer in human population is based on epidemiological data. Most extrapolations are limited by the lack of understanding of the mechanisms responsible for radiation carcinogenesis. The acquisition of knowledge on common genetic factors that ...

[PROJECT] RADON EPIDEMIOLOGY - Study of lung cancer risk and residential radon exposure
ID: FIGH-CT-1999-00008
Start date: 2000-03-01, End date: 2005-02-28
Epidemiological studies of underground miners have shown that exposure to radon and radon progeny increases the risk of lung cancer. However, there are uncertainties in using these data to estimate the risk associated with radon exposure in dwellings. In contrast, information ...
