Twenty five years of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine – progress and priorities
for future of radiation medicine and biology

After the creation of the Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine in 1993 the Research Center for Radiation Medicine was among the first institutions to join the Academy (fig. 1). Establishing the Academy was among the first steps of the independent Ukrainian government and aimed to provide a high level health care for population. It was extremely needed for the minimization of Chornobyl medical consequences. This choice was related to a growing recognition of the scientific research in fulfilling the Ñenter’s mission – study of the effects of low-dose radiation on human body and radiation protection of the exposed population. The Center entered the Academy as a potent institution. Director-General Dr. Anatoly Romanenko and his first deputy prof. Oles Pyatak were lucky to concentrate in three institutes of the Center a talented workforce including director of the Institute of Clinical Radiology prof Volodymyr Bebeshko, director of the Institute of Epidemiology and Prophylaxis of radiation Injuries prof. Volodymyr Buzunov, director of the Institute of Experimental Radiology prof. Mikhail Rudnev. Drs. T. Azarenkova, S. Galkina, V. Boer, T. Treskunova were appointed as scientific secretaries. Dosimetry division was headed by brilliant prof Ilya Likhtarev and his staff Drs. I. Los, V. Korzun, V. Repin, O. Perevoznikov, O. Bondarenko, V. Chumak and others.
