In Europe a new initiative, called ‘Multidisciplinary European LOw Dose Initiative’ (MELODI), has been proposed by a ‘European High Level and Expert Group on low-dose risk research’ (www.hleg.de), aimed at integrating national and EC (Euratom) efforts.

Under the coordination of STUK a network has been proposed in the 2009 Euratom Programme, called DoReMi (Low-Dose Research towards Mutidisciplinary Integration), which can help the integration process within the MELODI platform.

Abstract

ally. In Europe a new initiative, called ‘Multidisciplinary European LOw Dose Initiative’ (MELODI), has been proposed by a ‘European High Level and Expert Group on low-dose risk research’ (www.hleg.de), aimed at integrating national and EC (Euratom) efforts. Five national organisations: BfS (DE), CEA (FR), IRSN (FR), ISS (IT) and STUK (FI), with the support of the EC, have initiated the creation of MELODI by signing a letter of intent. In the forthcoming years, MELODI will integrate in a step-by-step approach EU institutions with significant programmes in the field and will be open to other scientific organisations and stakeholders. A key role of MELODI is to develop and maintain over time a strategic research agenda (SRA) and a road map of scientific priorities within a multidisciplinary approach, and to transfer the results for the radiation protection system. Under the coordination of STUK a network has been proposed in the 2009 Euratom Programme, called DoReMi (Low-Dose Research towards Mutidisciplinary Integration), which can help the integration process within the MELODI platform. DoReMi and the First MELODI Open Workshop, organised by BfS in September 2009, are now important inputs for the European SRA.
