DTRA’s advancements in nuclear and radiological detection
A new, more complex nuclear age has begun. Echoing the tensions of the Cold War amid rapidly evolving nuclear and radiological threats, preparedness in the modern age is a contest of scientific innovation. The Research and Development Directorate (RD) at the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) is charged with winning this contest.

Knowledge transfer and preservation are key to a successful continuation of the nuclear criticality safety discipline. To facilitate this, we are interviewing several experienced and mid-career scientists in the field with questions from newer members. Questions include: what do you wish you knew at five years into the career; what was the most important thing you learned in your career; and would you do anything different if you got to do it again? We will also be soliciting questions from the audience.
