At the campus Randwyck, sources of ionising radiation such as X-ray devices and radioactive substances, are used in the fields of medical care, research and education.
The use of these sources requires a governmental license, according to the Nuclear Energy Law.
The radiation protection unit manages this license, on behalf of the boards of the institutions that collaborate in radiation protection: Maastricht University Medical Center+ (MUMC+), Maastricht University (UM), Maastro Clinic, Maastro Proton Therapy BV and Brightlands Incubators Maastricht BV.

When you walked into a room, you would know Ibrahima Kaba was there. He had a magnetic energy about him. He was passionate about everything he took an interest in, and would debate and dance with you for hours - it was hard to keep up with him! He had ambitious dreams to help his country and it is unfair that he can’t ever accomplish them (because we know he could have). It is a great loss to the world of economics and to those who will never again be able to share his company, but it is a privilege to have created so many memories with him.

Already drafted your first blog post? Have your Twitter account up and running? Recorded a nice video pitch of your research? It’s a great start, but the job is not yet done. Social media is always on the move. To stay relevant, you need to continuously update your pages, hone your message, engage in dialogue and connect with new people.
Do you have specific questions about how to boost the impact of your research? Or just don’t know where to start? We are happy to provide you with individualised support to help you maximise the impact of your research.
To schedule a meeting with the research communication advisor at the Faculty of Law, Frie Hoekstra, please send an email to f.hoekstra@maastrichtuniversity.nl
When you meet with the research communication advisor, you will discuss the wide range of options you have for promoting your research (see examples below). Together, you will decide which options will be effective at helping you to achieve the greatest impact.

In 2016, the ‘FAIR Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship’ were published in Scientific Data, an online Nature magazine journal. The authors intended to provide guidelines to improve the findability, accessibility, interoperability and reuse of digital assets.
FAIR - What does it stand for? What does it mean? And even more so; why should we? And what it could mean for you(r research). Watch PhD candidate Chang Sun's video about what FAIR means to her.
PhD researcher Adam Jassem tells us about his experience with making research FAIR.
