Listen to lightning talks about fuel cycle analysis, molten salt reactors, and extended storage & transportation of used nuclear fuel. Keep your Bingo Card (to be provided) close at hand and listen for those key words! Yes, there will be prizes—The first three to get BINGO will earn gift cards to Starbucks, Amazon, and Chick-Fil-A!
