Breaking ground on a new approach to construction
The drive to Kairos Power’s reactor demonstration site in Oak Ridge, Tenn., is not only scenic—it’s historic. Nearly 85 years ago, roughly 30,000 construction workers transformed orchards and farmland into a key Manhattan Project site.

2023 ANS Student Conference Speaker
Jeremy graduated with a B.S. in Nuclear, Plasma, and Radiological Engineering from UIUC in 2018, and is now a graduate student studying plasma processing under Professor David Ruzic. He has been involved in ANS throughout his college career, serving at both the local and national level. As an undergraduate, Jeremy served as the External Vice President and President of the UIUC ANS chapter. In graduate school, Jeremy has continued his involvement through mentorship, participation in the student sections committee of ANS, and most recently in the planning and hosting of the 2022 ANS Student Conference as the technical co-chair. After his graduate degree Jeremy aspires to stay in academia as a professor so he can continue to engage with students and the nuclear community as a whole.
