Marko Moscovitch School

The inaugural Marko Moscovitch School (formerly known as the Summer School) was held in conjunction with the SSD21 Conference in Athens in 2001. Since then, it has been a tradition to conduct this school prior to each SSD Conference under the supervision of the International Solid State Dosimetry Organization (ISSDO). During the SSD17 in Brazil (2013) it was proposed to rename the school the Marko Moscovitch School in honor of Professor Marko Moscovitch, a distinguished figure in the field of solid state dosimetry. Professor Moscovitch's research significantly advanced the fields of neutron radiation dosimetry, thermoluminescence, and theoretical radiation physics.

The primary objective of the Marko Moscovitch School is to impart the necessary skills and knowledge to comprehend the principles and applications of dosimetry based on solid state detectors. The curriculum encompasses foundational aspects of dosimetry, advanced applications of solid state dosimetry techniques for emergency dosimetry, dose reconstruction and dating, real-time monitoring, medical dosimetry, among other topics
