Workforce Development in the Horizon-broadening Isotope Production Pipeline Opportunities

摘要: formed under the auspices of the Department of Energy’s Isotope Program to introduce graduate and undergraduate students to new frontiers and career opportunities in the sciences of isotope production. Powered by 17 excellent institutions, this program has attracted a diverse, talented group of 25 students from six different educational majors from all over the United States. These students are performing research in isotope production research groups at universities or national laboratories. Each participant attended at least one weeklong summer school focused on a specific aspect of radionuclide production and application. The entire group met at Los Alamos National Laboratory in summer 2022 to present their research, network, and learn more about isotope production. This cohort will continue research in the fall semester with collaboration meetings and further introduction to possible careers in a virtual …
