Investing in what comes next
Hash Hashemian
The 2026 ANS Annual Conference, “Net Out and Power Up,” brought the nuclear community together in Denver at the end of May. Over four days at the Sheraton Denver, we heard from exceptional speakers on the most consequential questions facing our field; how fusion and fission can complement each other, how to meet surging electricity demand, and what it takes to sustain American nuclear leadership. The embedded topicals on nuclear fuels and materials and on fusion energy added real technical depth. It was exactly the kind of gathering that reminds us why this community is so remarkable.
That energy and commitment is precisely what I want to channel as I close out my term as president of the American Nuclear Society. Because sustaining it year after year, conference after conference, requires more than enthusiasm. It requires investment.

Join us for a tour of Idaho National Laboratory’s Materials and Fuels Complex. This tour will consist of visiting the Transient Reactor Test Facility, the Hot Fuel Examination Facility, Irradiated Materials Characterization Laboratory, the Space and Security Power Systems Facility, and discussions on the Experimental Breeder Reactor II Dome. These facilities are used to test and analyze future nuclear fuels, small modular and micro-reactor concepts and provide nuclear power systems for NASA and other customers. Come see the future of nuclear power at Idaho National Laboratory!
Lunch will be provided by INL.
