His Serene Highness, Prince Albert II of Monaco with his delegation visited the Agency's Laboratories in Seibersdorf after having opened the special exhibit on Air, Earth and Oceans. Accompanied by DDG-NA Mr. Burkart and Dir-NAAL Ms. Voigt he toured the Clean Laboratory of the Safeguards Analytical Laboratory and the Secondary Standard Dosimetry Laboratory, where staff introduced their work. The in-site device used for cultural heritage was demonstrated to him in the Instrumentation Unit, and he received an overview of the work conducted in the Plant Breeding Unit and viewed the rice and banana mutants in the Seibersdorf Greenhouses. The Principality of Monaco has a long record of supporting the Marine Environmental Laboratory of Monaco.

HSH expressed his strong interest and support in this field and his intention to revisit the Laboratories Seibersdorf in the next future.
