Going Nuclear: Notes from the officially unofficial book tour
I work in the analytical labs at one of Europe’s oldest and largest nuclear sites: Sellafield, in northwestern England. I spend my days at the fume hood front, pipette in one hand and radiation probe in the other (and dosimeter pinned to my chest, of course). Outside the lab, I have a second job: I moonlight as a writer and public speaker. My new popular science book—Going Nuclear: How the Atom Will Save the World—came out last summer, and it feels like my life has been running at full power ever since.

Join the Diversity and Inclusion in ANS Committee for our 4th Annual "Nuclear Family Feud" workshop social! This year we tackle emotional intelligence and empathy in the workplace. How can we better connect with our co-workers and build the environment we want to see? Like the namesake game, we surveyed the ANS community to get your answers to our questions. No need to come with a team; we will team everyone at the workshop. Limited food and beverages will be provided.
