Jan 9th at University of Washington: CoMotion | Dr. Wendy Shaw, Associate Laboratory Director, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL)

Imagine capturing the power of a miniature sun to generate clean energy for the world. That’s the promise of fusion, and scientists, at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) are developing the advanced materials and digital tools needed to withstand the extreme conditions inside a fusion reactor. By combining theory, high-performance computing, and materials science, researchers are learning how metals and alloys respond to intense plasma and tritium exposure. With the help of artificial intelligence, they can now predict and even enhance material performance in real time. Dr. Wendy Shaw, PNNL’s new associate laboratory director for Physical and Computational Sciences, will share how this work is helping bring fusion energy from vision to reality.
