Director of Radiation Protection Programs, Massachusetts Institute of Technology FRANCIS MASSE has been actively involved in applied health physics since 1956, when he was appointed Radiation Safety Officer at TuPts-New England Medical Center in Boston. He was appointed to the Radiation Safety staff at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1959, where he has remained to date, while retaining his RSO appointment at TNEMC.

He joined Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1950 and undertook research on the physical properties of semiconductor surfaces and the nature of defects produced in semiconductors by high energy radiation. He was in charge of a scientific group that developed semiconductor radiation detectors for the Telstar satellites to monitor energetic particles in the Van Allen belts around the earth and studied the effects of radiation by those panicles on the solar cells and other semiconductor devices on satellites in earth orbit.

She was also a member of the working group responsible for revising the health effects model for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Reactor Safety Study, and provided a model for estimating cancer risks resulting from the radiation exposure likely to be received by the general population from a nuclear reactor accident. During a year spent at the Radiation Effects Research Foundation in Hiroshima, Japan, Dr.
