DOE lays out fuel cycle goals in RFI to states
The Department of Energy has issued a request for information inviting states to express interest in hosting Nuclear Lifecycle Innovation Campuses. According to the DOE, the proposed campuses could support work across the nuclear fuel life cycle, with a primary focus on fuel fabrication, enrichment, spent fuel reprocessing or recycling, separations, and radioactive waste management.
The DOE said the RFI marks the first step toward potentially establishing voluntary federal-state partnerships designed to build a coherent, end-to-end nuclear energy strategy for the country.

National laboratories have been largely responsible for the development and implementation of groundbreaking and novel technologies that are the cornerstone of nuclear science and technology. In this panel, the differences between a career in industry, academia, or at a national lab will be discussed. Additionally, the panelists will share insight on why and how to pursue a career in a national laboratory. View Friederike Bostelmann's Presentation
