2 INTRODUCTION

The advent of the atomic era has opened new areas of research in medicine and propounded new problems for solution.

The exchange of information between nations as well as between individuals has never been more pressing or necessary. It is hoped that this program will serve as a means of beneficial interchange of knowledge between the members of the medical services of our nations.

i T

PURPOSE

Field Command, Defense Atomic Support Agency, in conjunction with the assistance of United States scientific laboratories, civilian medical organizations, governmental agencies, and the Armed Forces Medical Services, present this Symposium in an effort to provide maximum dissemination and exchange of knowledge in the important area of nuclear weapons effects and atomic medicine.

The Symposium is especially designed to orient senior Canadian Medical Service Officers and selected civilian medical Y personnel in the medical problems associated with the handling, employment, and effects of nuclear weapons. Current and antic- ipated influences of nuclear energy, manned space flights, and rapid technological advances have had marked effects on our traditional military medical service. The best current thinking in this relatively new field will be reflected during the Symposium, with the hope that it will furnish some information leading to the solution of the problems left in the wake of physical science.
