NIRO's Dan Mathers and Sasha Wynn Davies were delighted to have taken part in the ‘SATURN-GREEN UKRI CDT Winterschool’ in York. Dan gave a keynote speech on the UK nuclear policy framework and NIRO’s role therein. Whilst Sash was on the panel discussing ‘Is Nuclear fundamental to achieving the UK’s Net Zero targets ?’ Both enjoyed taking part, meeting and answering some thought provoking questions from the talented PhD students present - an excellent session.
Building on the success of predecessor CDTs Nuclear FIRST and NGN, the mission of GREEN is, in collaboration with industry, to provide high quality research training in the science and engineering underpinning nuclear technologies (primarily TRLs 1-3), developing the subject matter experts of tomorrow.
