Bowen to lead new Office of Advanced Reactors
Jeremy Bowen will head the newly created Office of Advanced Reactors when it launches in September, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission announced Monday.
This new office will license and oversee new and advanced reactors. In his role, Bowen will be responsible for the review of advanced reactor applications—reviews that the NRC said will be “expeditious.”

CHARISMA Laboratory
SOLD OUT
Limited Availability
Attendees will take a tour of the CHARISMA Laboratory and will see a JEOL NeoArm S/TEM (Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope), a Scios DualBeam Focused Ion Beam (FIB)/Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), an X-ray Computed Tomography (XCT) system, and an X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) system. These instruments are heavily used in the nuclear materials community to view fuels, structural materials, and diagnostics on the nanometer scale and gain information about the impact of the nuclear reactor environment on the material’s structure and properties
