NSSC Hosts 2023 University Program Review
The Nuclear Science and Security Consortium hosted a successful annual University Program Review (UPR) meeting on June 6-8, 20223, in Berkeley, CA. The meeting was hosted in-person at the ASUC Student Union on the University of California Berkeley campus. This annual review provides a venue for students and collaborating scientists to showcase their research and allow programmatic oversight and technical interchange between student researchers, National Laboratories, and government research managers.
The UPR meeting welcomed 4 Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation Research and Development (DNN R&D)-funded consortia, Nuclear Science and Security Consortium (NSSC), Consortium for Monitoring, Technology, and Verification (MTV), Enabling Technologies & Innovation (ETI), and the Consortium for Nuclear Forensics (CNF). The 2023 UPR meeting assembled 276 participants, including faculty and students from ~30 universities, scientists from national labs and representatives from multiple government agencies. The NSSC also hosted Deputy Administrator, Corey Hinderstein, during the welcoming ceremony on the first day of the annual meeting.
