Going Nuclear: Notes from the officially unofficial book tour
I work in the analytical labs at one of Europe’s oldest and largest nuclear sites: Sellafield, in northwestern England. I spend my days at the fume hood front, pipette in one hand and radiation probe in the other (and dosimeter pinned to my chest, of course). Outside the lab, I have a second job: I moonlight as a writer and public speaker. My new popular science book—Going Nuclear: How the Atom Will Save the World—came out last summer, and it feels like my life has been running at full power ever since.

Session Chair:
Troy Munro (Brigham Young University)
Come meet the current and past 2 chairs of the Material Science and Technology Division (MSTD), all of whom chaired the division while also being in the YMG. This panel will focus on a range of topics, including recent updates in the field of nuclear materials science, new initiatives in MSTD to improve membership value, and ways to get involved in the division. We look forward to seeing you all virtually.
