Radioisotopes

The UVic radioisotope safety program works to ensure the safe and knowledgeable handling of radiation hazards in teaching and research environments.

  • Faculty members must apply for a Radioisotope Permit prior to purchasing, using, or storing radioactive materials. 
  • Users must be a valid permit holder or authorized personnel listed on a Radioisotope Permit.
  • Individuals (permit holders, students, staff) working with radioisotopes are required to attend Radiation Safety training.  

For more information, please contact the Radiation Safety Officer (RSO), Troy Hasanen at hasanent@uvic.ca.
