In this paper, an outline of the biological and epidemiological evidence for radiation protection is presented together with the strengths and limitations of these studies in radiation risk evaluation. Various types of research can provide useful information to complement the risk estimates based on atomic-bomb survivor studies, particularly the effects of low-dose and lowdose rate radiation. Some basic issues in synthesizing scientific information for radiation risk evaluation are also discussed.
