What is the PIANOFORTE European partnership?
The PIANOFORTE European partnership for research into radiation protection was launched on June 1, 2022 for a period of 5 years. It aims to improve the protection of the public, workers, patients and the environment following exposure to ionizing radiation from environmental, occupational and medical sources.
The aim of this partnership is to contribute to the implementation of European policies such as the European Cancer Plan, the Green Pact for Growth, and the deployment of the roadmap for the reduction of industrial and natural risks.
This partnership brings together 58 partners representing 22 European Union countries as well as the United Kingdom and Norway. It is coordinated by France's Institut de Radioprotection et de Sûreté Nucléaire (IRSN).
