2025 Congressional Fellows reflect on their terms
Each year, the American Nuclear Society awards the Glenn T. Seaborg Congressional Science and Engineering Fellowship to two members. Those recipients then spend a year in Washington, D.C., contributing to the federal policymaking process by working in either a U.S. senator’s or representative’s personal office or with a congressional committee.
It has been nearly six months since the 2025 Congressional Fellows provided their midterm updates on their time on the Hill. Now, as their fellowships draw to their close, Jacob Christensen and Mike Woosley are looking back on what they accomplished, what they learned, and much more.

All beneficial applications of nuclear technology -- energy, medicine, space, and industrial -- are tied inextricably to federal, state, and international laws, regulations, and funding. However, the larger geopolitical environment in which policy is made seems to change daily. Join a distinguished group of panelists from across the nuclear policymaking sphere as they dig into the major issues of the day and shed light on the longer-term implications.
