• Description:
  The mission of the Radiation Studies Program (RSP) in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Center for Environmental Health, is to analyze scientific advances, educate the public, and build public health capacity for all communities in the US to reduce morbidity and mortality from unnecessary exposures to radiation-both in daily life and in the event of a radiation emergency. The program accomplishes these goals by collaborating with national and international partners and supporting scientific advancements in collaboration with national and international organizations.Since 2001, RSP has developed tools, training, and communication products to prepare and support local, state, tribal, and federal agencies in the US that are engaged in a response to a nuclear or radiological incident. This paper summarizes the latest RSP resources, which were presented during the 17
  
  REMPAN Coordination Meeting in Seoul, South Korea, on September 14, 2023.
