Congratulations, Professor David Neil Ruzic! NPRE at Illinois

Two-dimensional Brillouin flow with a sudden change in the gap width is found to generate strong turbulence. Novel virtual cathodes embedded in strong vortexes are identified and explained. @umichners aippub.org/45VC47H

It's ON! Duke Energy Nuclear WIN challenges all chapters: which chapter can submit the most GROW Mentoring Program applications. Build connections, develop leadership skills, self-confidence and self-awarenesss. Applications are due Aug 9th! winus.org/news/2024-grow…

NERS 490 will be offered again this winter!

The first class of our new nuclear engineering summer school — Harper Academy — graduated today! So proud of these students and hoping to see many of them at UM next year! U-M Nuclear Engineering & Radiological Sciences Michigan Engineering

Design, creativity, and community engagement were a big focus of the summer school. And I loved hearing in the presentations today how much the students enjoyed that!

This was a great group of future leaders! I was glad we could host them.

Congratulations, Zhijie (George) Jiao, on your milestone anniversary of 20 years of service to University of Michigan! #GlowBlue #MIBL ners.engin.umich.edu/people/jiao-zh…

At the top of the collector tower at the National Solar Thermal Test Facility with Todd Allen and our host Sylvia Saltzstein during our tour of Sandia National Labs. We're ~ 10 stories up and you can see the field of heliostats in the background. What an amazing facility!

Flying home from an inspiring few days at Sandia National Labs, Univ. of New Mexico, and Kairos Power. Saw amazing facilities, and spoke with motivated mission-driven people. In labs, in academia, in industry - we're working to change the world with nuclear science. I'm feeling good about the future

Congratulations, Dr. Damon Anderson! Today, Dr. Anderson successfully defended his dissertation: "Digital Signals Processing Techniques and ASIC Development for 3D CdZnTe Gamma-Ray Detectors."

Congratulations, Dr. Jamalina Jamaluddin! Today, she successfully defended her thesis: Radiotherapy Treatment Plan Optimization using Advanced Machine Learning Approaches.

Congratulations, Ricardo Lopez, on your INMM Tweets Nonproliferation and Arms Control Division award. #GlowBlue myumi.ch/PkQXV

TOMORROW at 10am: Markus Piro from McMaster University will discuss his "Reflections on Pivoting Research to Different Nuclear Technologies." Baer Room (2906 Cooley) events.umich.edu/event/124255

Congratulations, Dr. Roxanne Walker! Today, she successfully defended her thesis: Hydrodynamic Modifications to the Plasma-Liquid Interface for Reactivity Control in Environmental Remediation Applications.

This summer, U-M Nuclear Engineering & Radiological Sciences hosted a cohort of rising high school seniors at the Harper Academy 4 Future Nuclear Engineers. We are excited to see what these young scholars accomplish and we're looking forward to round two next summer!

Former U-M President James Duderstadt dies at 81. Big loss for both the nuclear and UMich communities. michiganpublic.org/education/2024…

A huge loss for our community. Some called him "Dr. Duderstadt," others called him "The Dude." We knew him as Jim. He will be greatly missed. myumi.ch/8rkNR
