Nuclear News 40 Under 40: The wait is over
Following the enthusiastic response from the nuclear community in 2024 for the inaugural NN 40 Under 40, the Nuclear News team knew we had to take up the difficult task in 2025 of turning it into an annual event—though there was plenty of uncertainty as to how the community would receive a second iteration this year. That uncertainty was unfounded, clearly, as the tight-knit nuclear community embraced the chance to celebrate its up-and-coming generation of scientists, engineers, and policy makers who are working to grow the influence of this oft-misunderstood technology.

The first step to hosting a successful student conference is writing a strong proposal. A strong proposal indicates to judges that your team has already placed a high degree of thought into your conference's vision and operation. Previous Student Conference Chairs and proposal judges will share their experiences about what makes a successful student conference proposal and answer questions from the audience. Student sections at any stage in the proposal process, from just starting to think about hosting to repeat submitters, are strongly encouraged to attend. The discussion will largely be driven by audience interest and questions, so please ask us anything!
