When establishing new Task Groups, ICRP calls for expressions of interest for experts to complete the membership. Notices are posted here, normally for a period of about six weeks, and advertised through social media and news articles on the ICRP website.
Applications are accepted only through the Expression of Interest to Join an ICRP Task Group web portal.
The application requires a short CV that includes your full name, email address, the TG number you are applying for, a brief employment history, list of relevant major professional accomplishments, publications, and other information describing how you meet the relevant qualifications. It must be in pdf format, in English, and not more than two pages.
Task Group members should be familiar with the System of Radiological Protection developed by ICRP.
ICRP aims for Task Group membership to be geographically and experientially diverse.
We expect the process to be quite competitive. All candidates will be informed of the outcome of their application within about one month of the submission deadline whether they are selected or not.
Note that successful candidates will be required to complete a conflict of interest declaration before their membership is confirmed.
