Thanks to a great paper submission turnout and our two embedded topical meetings, the 2024 ANS Annual Conference is expanding and moving to a larger venue – Mandalay Bay.
The venue change will allow more space for our technical sessions and great networking opportunities that bring together the nuclear community like no other meeting. To accommodate the change, we’re moving the conference to June 16-19, which is one week later than the original dates.
The two topical meetings, Advanced Reactor Safety (ARS) and International Congress on Advances in Nuclear Power Plants (ICAPP), will also take place June 16-19.
This year’s ANS Annual Conference promises to be an experience like no other. You can bet on it.
