Andrew led a webinar on 'Radioactive needlesticks: What's the risk?'. His talk covered recent Loughborough research into the dose associated with accidental injuries when working with radioactive sharps. This research will help develop new guidelines for radioactive needlestick risk, which has many unknowns, and Andrew's talk discussed some of the issues in question in preparation for a community consultation.
