Welcome to our website.

We are a regional chapter of the Health Physics Society, an international professional scientific organization dedicated to promoting the practice of radiation safety.

NECHPS was established in 1960 to serve radiation protection professionals in the New England area. The chapter’s goals are to: aid in the work of health physics; to improve the dissemination of information between individuals in the field and related fields; to address public concerns about radioactivity; to promote health physics as a profession; and to accomplish goals set by the national Health Physics Society.
