ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Young Members Group
The Young Members Group works to encourage and enable all young professional members to be actively involved in the efforts and endeavors of the Society at all levels (Professional Divisions, ANS Governance, Local Sections, etc.) as they transition from the role of a student to the role of a professional. It sponsors non-technical workshops and meetings that provide professional development and networking opportunities for young professionals, collaborates with other Divisions and Groups in developing technical and non-technical content for topical and national meetings, encourages its members to participate in the activities of the Groups and Divisions that are closely related to their professional interests as well as in their local sections, introduces young members to the rules and governance structure of the Society, and nominates young professionals for awards and leadership opportunities available to members.

The purpose of the MARVEL project is to develop, in less than 2 years, a nuclear microreactor applications test bed at INL to perform research and development on various operational features of microreactors to ultimately improve integration of microreactors to end-user applications. Through collaboration between the DOE Microreactor Program and the National Reactor Innovation Center (NRIC), the development of this test bed provides an opportunity to establish and exercise key NRIC capabilities that support future reactor demonstrations by: (1) providing an early-stage platform for potential end users of microreactor systems, (2) deploying the first small-scale R&D reactor in 40 years to support new capability development, (3) facilitating outreach activity with stakeholders interested in novel nuclear energy applications (e.g., hydrogen production, process heating, water purifications), and (4) investigating and addressing issues relating to fabrication, assembly, rapid installation, deployment, and operation of microreactors. The panel will provide an overview of the MARVEL from the perspective of key contributors and stakeholders.
