From renaissance to reality: Infrastructure for a global nuclear fuel cycle
Dale Klein
This article was adapted from the author’s speech during a plenary at the 21st International Symposium on the Packaging and Transportation of Radioactive Materials (PATRAM 2025), San Antonio, Texas, July 2025.
There has been a lot of discussion lately about reforming the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. But I want to be clear: When it comes to nuclear safety and security, there is no place for partisan politics. I support efforts to streamline regulatory processes, but the independence and integrity of the NRC must remain sacrosanct. If we are serious about expanding nuclear power and reclaiming our global leadership in nuclear technology, having a strong independent regulator is fundamental.
Right now, we’re on the edge of a global nuclear resurgence driven by rising demand from data centers, growing concerns about energy security, and the need to decarbonize industry.
For full papers, presentation needs to be on a USB drive; if unable to use USB, contact your session chair. You will not be able to use your own laptop and must use the conference-provided laptop.
As back-ups to the USB drive, ANS recommends that you email your slides to yourself and upload them to the meeting platform.
Presenters will not be able to access the internet via the session-room laptop.
Paper presentations will be 20 minutes in length followed by a 5-minute discussion period. Lightning Talks will be 5 minutes each with a minute for transition; Q&A will not follow Lightning Talks.
To find or confirm your presentation time, use the Search the Program box in the Technical Sessions program. You can search by your name. Note that for Lightning Talks, if a speaker is not present, we will move onto the next talk even if it does not fit into the published time frame.
All presenters and panelists need to be registered for the conference.
To upload your slides to the conference website as a back-up:
Must be registered for NETS 2025 to access the website.
Click “Manage Your Papers” in the left-hand navigation bar (under your name) and then “Attachments/Add a New Attachment.”
To add your presentation, click “Add a New Attachment,” select the Presentation Slides (Admins) attachment type, add a document name, upload the file, and click “Add New Attachment."
On the day of your session:
Arrive to your assigned room (as listed in the program) at least 15 minutes before the start of the session.
Bring your slides on your USB drive to the session room. (Note: If you are presenting a Lightning Talk, you will have already emailed your slides to the technical program chair.)
Provide the session chair with a brief biography for introductions.
Do not ask the session chair to reschedule your presentation within the session. Many attendees schedule their attendance at various sessions in accordance with the order of presentations listed in the program.
Technical session rooms will have the following equipment, which must remain in the room:
