Our Aim
Bringing together great minds in radiation research to advance technology and human health outcomes. We are a convergence of scientists working together on two radiation biology proposals for the Department of Defense and National Institute of Health. The aim of this Alliance is to provide the Department of Defense and National Institute of Health with data and tools to evaluate biomedical effects of internal exposures to radionuclides and metals in soldiers and civilians, particularly involving particulate lung exposures. The group will generate a unified approach to sharing of data to advance information exchange among our scientific communities, and support integration with existing radiation data repositories, thereby advancing scientific knowledge relevant to treatment responses in wartime situations.

Our Research
We are banding together to preserve and share information across the scientific communities to allow creative solutions to grow from our integrated approach. For more on this, read our latest publication on Marie Curie’s discovery of radium and radionuclides.
Our Team
Our project is led by Dr. Gayle Woloschak , Principle Investigator, and joined by members of the Woloschak Lab, University of Florida, Georgia Tech, Oak Ridge National Lab, UC Berkeley, and Oak Ridge Associated University
Funding for this project is provided by the Department of Defense, award number W81XWH-21-1-0984; Aligning Dosimetry and Biomarkers of Lung Injury with Prophylaxis and Mitigation of Damage from Radionuclides and Metals, and by a grant from the National Institutes of Health NIH/NIAID, award 1P01AI165380-01; Multi-Scale Evaluation and Mitigation of Toxicities Following Internal Radionuclide Contamination.
