@PVAMU senior Kailynn Weaver is one of 25 U.S. honors students named a Nobel Peace Ambassador. Through a program with Oslo’s Nobel Peace Center, she’s studying Nobel Peace Prize winners this fall and will lead a peace project at PVAMU next spring: bit.ly/4BxyYWR
One week ago, Deputy Secretary of Energy James Danly visited @tamu to announce a $5.4 million @ENERGY grant to study how to recycle used nuclear fuel into fuel for new reactors.
Dr. Lin Shao of the Department of Nuclear Engineering leads the project, which centers on a thorium molten salt reactor, with partners at Savannah River National Laboratory and Natura Resources.
The work could reduce the need to store spent fuel for the long term and help Texas lead in energy!
