Feinstein Institutes to research novel radiation countermeasure
The Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research, home of the research institutes of New York’s Northwell Health, announced it has received a five-year, $2.9 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to investigate the potential of human ghrelin, a naturally occurring hormone, as a medical countermeasure against radiation-induced gastrointestinal syndrome (GI-ARS).

Panelists will present the experimental capabilities of test facilities that can be used to support the development of new reactor concepts and designs. These facilities will have the ability to generate high-quality data that can be used for system and computational fluid dynamic code validation. Such data can support safety analyses and reduce uncertainty, especially for thermal hydraulic phenomena of interest, enhance our technical understanding, and fill in technical gaps. The panelists will also provide information on the current status and on future testing that is being planned. The presentations include: Thermal Hydraulic Testing Facilities for Lead Fast Reactor Development; Developing Nuclear Technology through Design-Build-Test; High Pressure/High Temperature Helium Flow Test Facility at City College of New York; and Combined Positron Emission Particle Tracking/CT Experimental Capabilities for Nuclear Engineering Applications.
