Personal information:
Name : Adnan Jawdat Judeh Abdul-BaqiDate of birth : May 9, 1969Civil status : Married, 4 childrenNationality : Palestinian & Dutch permanent residentPrivate address : Ramallah – Palestine Email : adnan(underscore)jj@(yahoo dot com)
Current job:
2004 – present: 1. Main: Director of the Environmental Radiation Department at the
Environment Quality Authority in Palestine.2. Part-time: Assistant professor at Birzeit University – Physics
department , Palestine
As a director of the Radiation Department, my duties include:
1. Monitor radiation (natural and man-made) levels in the environment and try to keep its levels within the allowed international limits. This is achieved by issuing an environmental permit to any radiation-emitting facility when it complies with our standards and regulations (examples of such facilities include: mobile base stations, power lines and x-ray rooms).
2. Continuous public awareness campaign regarding radiation protection. So far I have contributed in more than 100 lectures and workshops throughout the West Bank – Palestine, besides the daily public consultation on radiation.
3. Following up the public complains and fears by making the necessary scientific explanations and necessary radiation measurements.
4. Keeping track of the related scientific research.
5. Frequent re-evaluation of our radiation-related standards and regulations to account for any recent scientific findings
Education & research experience:
2001 - 03: Post Doc position in the group of Prof. Marc Geers, Eindhoven University of Technology, Eindhoven, the Netherlands. I have been working as a researcher on fatigue damage modeling in solder joint interconnects, a project supported by PHILIPS company.
