Scientists at the Canadian Light Source synchrotron are ready to test the Medical Isotope Project facility after receipt of the Commissioning Licence from the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission earlier today.
With the license, the MIP will undergo rigorous testing to ensure the facility is ready to produce medical isotopes in the near future.
