SAFECAST CONFERENCE IN FUKUSHIMA

Almost seven years have passed since 3 · 11, and while we’ve been informed that the decommissioning of the reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant will take 40 more years, we wonder what will Fukushima look like 50 years after that, in 2111. To consider those questions, we will hold the Safecast Conference…

Safecast at Stanford's Medicine X conference

History of Safecast

An interesting and hard to understand aspect about Safecast is that there was never a point in time when we weren’t doing this, and then decided to start.
