Joshua Hayes, Ph.D., is associate manager for health physics at the Radiation Emergency Assistance/Training Site. He's also a Marine, an ultramarathon runner, a husband and a soon-to-be girl dad. In this episode of the ORISE Featurecast, hosts Michael Holtz and Amber Davis talk to Hayes about how all roads led to him coming to work at REAC/TS. He was a CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear) Marine who helped with cleanup following the Fukushima disaster. He went back to Japan to study radiation exposure in boars and other animals as a master's and doctoral student. Hayes says he is excited about the work he does. REAC/TS is a deployable U.S. Department of Energy asset managed by ORISE. REAC/TS responds to radiation incidents around the world, either by phone or in person. The team also trains medical professionals to respond to radiation incidents. Hayes says the variety of applications of his knowledge -- from answering calls from individuals concerned they've been exposed to radiation to training teams in far-flung locations -- keeps him excited about his work.
