ANS Fireside Chat introduces new leaders for ANS, UCOR
On Tuesday, during Mark Peters’s last days as the American Nuclear Society’s vice president/president-elect before assuming the presidency on June 4, he sat down with ANS CEO Craig Piercy for a Fireside Chat at the Annual Conference.
The MITRE CEO weighed in on his career path, what excites and worries him about the resurgence of nuclear energy, and juggling work-life balance with his new duties as ANS’s 72nd president.
“It’s going to be a lot of fun. It’s an important year,” he told Piercy.

The continued development of science, engineering, and technology to support nonproliferation policy is instrumental in allowing states to verify compliance with nonproliferation treaties, providing effective and efficient ways to implement domestic and international nuclear safeguards, and preventing non-state actors from developing nuclear weapons or acquiring weapons-usable nuclear or radiological material, equipment, technology, and expertise. This technical session will focus on new research that supports different aspects of nonproliferation policy.
