Participate
in the second installment of the ANS Young Members Group Spotlight on
National Labs series, featuring Argonne National Laboratory, on
Thursday, April 30, 1:00 - 2:30 pm EDT.
Learn about Argonne's storied history and how the lab is supporting
key nuclear energy and other initiatives of national and international
significance. The webinar is free and open to all. Register now.
From
the start, Argonne has been at the forefront of research and
innovation. In 1946, as an outgrowth of the Manhattan Project at the
University of Chicago, Argonne was established as a nuclear engineering,
chemistry, and materials laboratory to develop peaceful uses for a
revolutionary new source of energy: nuclear power. Today, nearly every
commercial reactor in existence owes its development to seminal research conducted at Argonne.
Building
on this heritage, Argonne continues its work to advance the safe and
sustainable use of nuclear energy and to apply its nuclear technology
expertise to current and emerging programs. Argonne supports key U.S.
Department of Energy nuclear energy initiatives, including leading the
nation's program for development and demonstration of fast reactor and
fuel recycle technologies that promise to improve the affordability of
nuclear power, enhancing the assurance of safety and security and
minimizing
the quantity of radioactive waste.
