Chris Wagner: The role of Eden Radioisotopes in the future of nuclear medicine
Chris Wagner has more than 40 years of experience in nuclear medicine, beginning as a clinical practitioner before moving into leadership roles at companies like Mallinckrodt (now Curium) and Nordion. His knowledge of both the clinical and the manufacturing sides of nuclear medicine laid the groundwork for helping to found Eden Radioisotopes, a start-up venture that intends to make diagnostic and therapeutic raw material medical isotopes like molybdenum-99 and lutetium-177.

The low Z armor tiles of the First Wall (FW) are designed. The thermohydraulics analysis, evaluation of the thickness for evaporated erosin are performed. In addition, surface heat flux of the FW caused by runaway electrons, the electromagnetic loads, impact of the FW protection layer thickness on neutronics performance, and tritium inventory of the FW tiles are calculated.
