Text of the notice, most likely contributed by J.H. Martin:

Radiation Society of Australia

A highly successful conference on "Radiation Biology" was held at the Cancer Institute, Mellbourne, in December 1955. This conference made apparent the number of people in Australia interested in the effects of radiation, and led to the suggestion of the formation of a Radiation Society. The Society is intended to lead to a better understanding among the workers in the various disciplines involved, and thereby to encourage research investigations. A committee has been elected, and comprises : Sir Macfarlane Burnet (director·, Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research, Royal Melbourne Hospital), Dr. A. M. Clarke (Zoology Department, University of Melbourne), Mr. K. H. Clarke, Mr. H. A. S. van den Brenk, and Dr. J. H. Martin (convener) (Cancer Institute Board, Melbourne). A programme of four meetings for the year has been prepared, the intention of these first meetings being to cover fundamental concepts.
