  Center for Used Fuel Research: Building confidence in storage and transport
  Used nuclear fuel storage and transportation have reached a critical juncture.
  Dozens of utilities need reliable data on how used nuclear fuel performs in dry storage casks and canisters to extend regulatory licenses at sites across the United States. Likewise, the Department of Energy expects to take ownership of the used nuclear fuel—termed “spent nuclear fuel” in the laws and regulations governing its stewardship—and transfer it to one or more federal staging facilities for management and disposition.
  Meanwhile, dozens of reactor companies are testing prototypes of advanced reactors and advanced reactor fuels. Eventually, regulators and industry must also verify the safety and security of storage methods for these advanced fuel types.
  To help address these challenges, the DOE established the Center for Used Fuel Research (CUFR) in January 2026 for work related to the long-term storage and transport of used nuclear fuel.

13th International Conference on Methods and Applications of Radioanalytical Chemistry (MARC XIII)

March 23–28, 2025

Kailua-Kona, HI

About MARC XIII

Since MARC I in 1987, this series of conferences has become the major international forum for discussion of advances in radioanalytical chemistry and its applications, despite the somewhat remote location for many participants. A wide variety of topics are covered in the scientific program including environmental radioactivity measurements, activation analysis, biology and medical applications, radiation detectors and instrumentation, nuclear proliferation prevention and safeguards, education, and mass spectrometry methods for detecting radioactive materials.

General Chair:

Stephen LaMont (Los Alamos National Laboratory)

Program Chair:

Samuel Glover (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health)
