Tedd Weyman served as the Deputy Director of the Uranium Medical Research Center (UMRC).[1]

Activities

Weyman was the Field Investigation’s Team Lead for UMRC’s studies of the effects of uranium weapons in Iraq, Afghanistan and Gaza. His report, Radiation Contamination of Afghanistan, was subpoenaed as evidence in the United Nations War Crimes Tribunal on the use of weapons of mass destruction. He gave evidence to the Parliament of Sweden in Stockholm on the military use of uranium in non-fissile weapons and findings in the communities of Iraq and Afghanistan. His field research findings were invited as documentary evidence in the 2008 NGO Partners’ Review of the UN Non-Proliferation Treaty.[2] The public release of findings of radioactive weapons resulting in “high uranium levels in troops and civilians” was recognized as one of the “Most Censored News Story of 2004".[3][4]
