  • Nuclear Science in Latin-America
    Nuclear Science in Latin-America Alinka Lépine-Szily Instituto de Física-USP São Paulo, Brazil IUPAP-WG9 Meeting-on-the-web 10,11 June 2021 News from ALAFNA (Association of Latin American Nuclear Physics and Applications) ALAFNA was very informal until recently, no bylaws, chairs reelected every 2 years etc. In January 2020 Sotirios Charisopoulos from IAEA invited ALAFNA to a Consultancy Meeting with IAEA, to realize in November 2020. During 2020 we performed steps to formalize ALAFNA: Bylaws were proposed and voted. Some ideas from the bylaws: 1. ALAFNA is a regional association of professionals attached to organizations in nuclear science in Latin America. In exceptional situations, they can also be Latin American scientists working in a nuclear science organization in other countries. 2. The Latin American countries that have organized LASNPA meetings can be represented in ALAFNA (until now Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela). 3. The number of ALAFNA members from a member country is at most 3 with a 4 year term. Each country chooses its own method of naming its representatives. In exceptional cases, a country may propose to be represented by a Latin American nuclear scientist working in another country. 4. ALAFNA is governed by a Board composed of four members (Chair, Vice-Chair, Past- Chair, Secretary) elected for one term of 2 years by the members among the current membership by a simple majority. No immediate reelection for the same or a different position in the Board is permitted. Due to pandemic no representatives were yet chosen, no elections for Board.

    The international movement of students between 18 and 35 years of age builds bridges of understanding among people, cultures and institutions; it promotes the development of leadership built in the global community and encourages the circulation of talent and knowledge through the world. For the young people involved, a journey for study, cultural immersion or work experience is a turning point in their process of development that prepares them to live together in an interconnected world. It can help them develop all the abilities necessary to adapt to new social and cultural environments while sowing the seeds for the kind of global mentality that will be fundamental to take advantage of the benefits and mitigate the disadvantages of globalisation. > The strategic impact of the arrival of international talent Immediate term: the interrelation of cosmovisions and best practice among local and international students. Long term: the student becomes a spokesperson for the university, urban, social and cultural experience in which he or she took part. > El Economic impact of the arrival of international talent During the experience: students generate income while in the city, often added to by visits from friends and relatives. After the experience: after leaving, students have a high chance of becoming future investors, students at another level, or visitors for leisure purposes. > The phenomenon in Buenos Aires In 2017, 61,100 visitors from different parts of the world chose Buenos Aires for study, and another 1,000 young people obtained the “Vacaciones y trabajo” (work and travel) visa in order to have a different experience in the Argentine capital.

Forecasts are completely discouraging. For the next 20 years, no country will see a drop in the number of incidences and cases leading to mortality. According to the WHO, a total of 430,000 people died in South America as a result of cancer in 2012. By 2035 the regional projection is 883,000 . Brazil is the South American country with the largest number of new cases of cancer. Currently, there are 437,000 which will see a 90% increase. http://actualidad.rt.com/ciencias/165454-cancer-mortalidad- colombia-ecuador-sudamerica Introduction RISK OF CANCER AND AGE IN LA Men (%) Women Risk Age Información tomada del GRUPO ONCOMEDICA (Dr. Luis Barriga) 1 7/15/2015 Cancer Management Introduction Objectives . local control . survival . quality of life of patients with CANCER Needs – Radiation Oncologist: 1/250 patients .

  • Argentina, Regional Training Center on Radiation Protection for Latin America
    Argentina, Regional Training Center on Radiation Protection for Latin America C. Terrado a* and C. Menossi b * a*Nuclear Regulatory Authority, Ave. Libertador 8250, 1429. Buenos Aires, Argentina b*Nuclear Regulatory Authority, Ave. Libertador 8250, 1429. Buenos Aires, Argentina Abstract Argentina has an extensive background in education and training on Radiation Protection. Since the beginning of the nuclear activity in the country, prominence was given to the aspects related to radiation protection and training of the personnel involved in the use of ionizing radiation. These educative activities have been delivered for more than 50 years, having accumulated an important experience in the field. The Nuclear Regulatory Authority has the statutory obligation to address, among other matters, the control of the aspects of nuclear safety and radiation protection on the whole country, to protect the people of the harmful effects of ionizing radiation resulting from the nuclear activities. This includes the responsibility to develop and enforce the regulations, standards and other requirements, particularly, establishing the requests and promoting activities regarding education and training on radiation protection. Argentina, currently through the Nuclear Regulatory Authority, has performed postgraduate courses on radiation protection and nuclear safety at interregional and regional level for 28 years without interruption. This important experience has been valued and exploited to form a Regional Center on Education and Training for Latin America and the Caribbean, sponsored by the International Atomic Energy Agency. The Regional Center that in fact has been running in Argentina, trained 404 foreign participants and 327 local participants since 1980, totalizing 731 graduates from our annual post graduate courses.
