 Academy of Science-National Research Council, took part in developing a pro- 

 gram for the disposal of low-level radioactive waste into Pacific coastal waters. 



Organized and served as chairman of a symposium on the Biological Implica- 

 tions of Radioactive Isotopes in the Sea, at the University of California, Davis, 

 June 1961.
