Mark Peters: Building on a strong foundation
Summer at the American Nuclear Society carries with it a sense of renewed momentum as the incoming president takes office and starts making plans for the year ahead. This has been particularly true in the last few years, as nuclear energy moves into a new era marked by broader public interest, stronger policy support, and a growing sense of possibility across the field. Mark Peters, the Society’s 72nd president, shares that optimism—and he is focused on turning it into results.
U.S. Nuclear Nexus is a web platform with a human interface that connects U.S. industry to NNSA resources and expertise by providing a single point of access to NNSA and DOE laboratory complex’s recommendations, training, working groups, reference tools, and other relevant regulations. Nexus combines a human interface with a request tracking system to respond and manage support and engagement among NNSA and U.S. Government offices. Nexus helps integrate international nuclear safeguards and nuclear security early in the design process.
