- Awarded the Bernard Wheatley Prize for the best scientific paper published in the Journal of Radiation Protection in 2016 at the Society of Radiological Protection conference in Aberdeen, May 2017. The acceptance address noted that the results of the paper can be generalized to other pollutants (other than radioactive gases) in the near field of buildings, potentially increasing the scope of the research work. Methods are being used by Guys and St Thomas’ Hospital in maintaining their licence from the Environment Agency for operation of their Cyclotron facilities. The extension to other hospitals with similar facilities is under discussion.
