We are very pleased to announce that Professors Kai Vetter and Lee Bernstein have been elected Fellows of the American Physical Society. Prof. Lee Bernstein was recognized “for work developing novel methods of determining neutron-nucleus cross sections via high-resolution γ-ray spectroscopy, the early development of surrogate ratio method, and the study of nuclear processes in high energy density plasmas at NIF.” Prof. Kai Vetter was recognized “for pioneering contributions to fundamental radiation detection techniques, particularly gamma-ray imaging, and important societal applications.” Congratulations, Lee and Kai!

The Consortium for Nonproliferation Enabling Capabilities (CNEC) is seeking candidates for our competitive fellowship program.

Graduating seniors and first-year graduate students enrolled in a Ph.D.-granting program are eligible.  The fellowship will support research (in science, engineering, and the social sciences) that aligns well with the nuclear nonproliferation mission of CNEC.

Students may conduct their research at their home university – eligible institutions are not required to be CNEC member universities.
