Dr. Field to Receive 2022 Radon Hero Award

April 19, 2022 by Reed, Breanna L

Dr. Field, former Heartland Center Deputy Director, has been selected by the Conference of Radiation Control Program Directors to receive the 2022 Radon Hero Award. The award recognizes an individual who has demonstrated leadership in reducing the health effects of radon exposure.

Field is recognized as one of the foremost authorities on radon, not only for his research into the radioactive gas, but because of his advocacy and outreach efforts. He helped identify radon as the leading environmental cause of cancer deaths in the United States, and remains dedicated to educating the public about the health risks of radon and ways to reduce exposure in homes, schools and at work.
