ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Nuclear Installations Safety
Devoted specifically to the safety of nuclear installations and the health and safety of the public, this division seeks a better understanding of the role of safety in the design, construction and operation of nuclear installation facilities. The division also promotes engineering and scientific technology advancement associated with the safety of such facilities.

The 2025 ANS election results are in!
Spring marks the passing of the torch for American Nuclear Society leadership. During this election cycle, ANS members voted for the newest vice president/president-elect, treasurer, and six board of director positions (four U.S., one non-U.S., one student). New professional division leadership was also decided on in this election, which opened February 25 and closed April 15. About 21 percent of eligible members of the Society voted—a similar turnout to last year.

Panelists will present the experimental capabilities of test facilities that can be used to support the development of new reactor concepts and designs. These facilities will have the ability to generate high-quality data that can be used for system and computational fluid dynamic code validation. Such data can support safety analyses and reduce uncertainty, especially for thermal hydraulic phenomena of interest, enhance our technical understanding, and fill in technical gaps. The panelists will also provide information on the current status and on future testing that is being planned. The presentations include: Thermal Hydraulic Testing Facilities for Lead Fast Reactor Development; Developing Nuclear Technology through Design-Build-Test; High Pressure/High Temperature Helium Flow Test Facility at City College of New York; and Combined Positron Emission Particle Tracking/CT Experimental Capabilities for Nuclear Engineering Applications.
