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.

Recent experimental results of power and particle control in JT-60U with W-shaped pumped divertor are presented. Backflow of carbon impurities towards x point is decreased by the dome as well as by the gas puff from the main plasma. Heat load on divertor plates is reduced by the detached plasma at high density and radiative plasma by neon seeding. Effective helium exhaust is demonstrated for helium-beam-injected plasmas. Results of high-confinement experiments are also shown. Strongly heated ELMy H-mode plasmas are sustained during 9 s without increasing the impurity contamination. High QDTeq ~ 1 is obtained in the low Ip regime of the reversed shear plasmas. Progress in the negative-ion-based neutral beam injection experiments is finally introduced
