Curie-ating Safety: Honoring Curie, Protecting the Future
Curie-ating Safety is site dedicated to providing a collaborative and comprehensive online resource for health physicists worldwide. By curating and sharing knowledge, best practices, and resources, we aim to empower professionals to excel in radiation safety, promote the legacy of Marie Curie, and ensure the safe use of radiation for the benefit of humankind. Safety is not zero sum. It is best described in the words of Eleanor Roosevelt and Otto von Bismarck below.
"Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself." - Eleanor Roosevelt
"Any fool can learn from his own experience. The wise man learns from the experience of others." - Otto von Bismarck
