 Behind these doors, there's a fascinating world of science and research, where IAEA scientists use nuclear technology to improve the lives of millions of people. Let's take a closer look at the work being done behind these doors and its impact around the world. Behind these doors, environmental pollution is being monitored. The work being conducted is used to advise countries how to prevent pollution and mitigate its consequences. Radiation medicine is used by hospitals worldwide to treat cancer and diagnose diseases. This laboratory ensures that radiotherapy or x-ray machines are set correctly so patients get the right dose of radiation. And our cultural heritage is also being preserved behind these doors. Tests are conducted to discover the origins and composition of ancient objects. Experts can take their equipment to the places where these precious artifacts are located. Activities in the field of food and agriculture are carried out jointly with the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization. Pests are a major problem. Insects like the fruit fly decimate entire fruit fields, ruining crops and livelihoods. This laboratory provides support to countries that use a method known as the sterile insect technique to suppress and eradicate pests. Animals provide both food security and financial support, but they can suffer from deadly illnesses which can be passed on to humans. This laboratory produces vaccines for such animal diseases. Plant breeding is also a focus at the IAEA laboratories. This research leads to new varieties of plants that are disease resistant, have higher yields, or can grow in extreme environments. Good soil is the basis for healthy and abundant crops. Scientists help countries to improve soil fertility and make the best use of scarce water resources. The healthiest of soils can be damaged with too much pesticide. IAEA experts produce tools to help farmers apply pesticides effectively and safely. Since these laboratories opened in 1962, there's been no comprehensive renovation. Even though the demands for the services they offer have increased substantially, they're expected to increase even further as the problems the eight labs address continue to grow. These laboratories need to be at the top of their game scientifically. Using the latest technology while meeting the highest safety and security standards. This is why the IAEA has launched the Renewal Project to renovate and modernize them. This will enable the IAEA to offer better services, train even more visiting experts, and continue to improve the lives of millions of people for decades to come.
