“I am very sad to advise members of the recent passing of Professor Pete Cole, Past President of the Society, following a short illness. Pete was highly respected within the radiation protection community.  As well as being President of SRP from 2015/17 he was also President of The Association of University Radiation Protection Officers from 2018/23.  In recent years he had been a driving force in establishing the SRP/AURPO webinar series and had co-chaired almost all of them.  During his Presidency years, he was also at the forefront of outreach projects and initiatives to attract and develop new professionals in the field.  Among his many other accomplishments was his co-authorship of the current edition of the critically acclaimed text book ‘An Introduction to Radiation Protection’.  He was an inspiring friend to many of us and will be greatly missed.”
Jennifer Humphries, President.

Pete joined the University of Liverpool in 2000 where he was appointed as the Radiation, Radioactive Waste and Laser Protection Adviser for the University. Obituary
