Scientific Basis for Nuclear Waste Management XLVIII: Towards Effective Nuclear Waste Management - Progress and Challenges
This special issue focuses on the science and technology of nuclear waste management, emphasizing performance and key challenges. It assesses nuclear waste forms and their compatibility with geological disposal, explores waste processing technologies, and discusses state-of-the-art development of sorbent materials for radionuclide capture.
MRS is an incredible community of scholars, innovators, and engineers driven to have a positive impact on the world through new materials. Being an MRS Member gives me access to forefront research spanning materials synthesis, characterization, and applications. The Spring and Fall MRS conferences are among my favorite annual meetings to connect with the community, and the monthly MRS Bulletin is a great way to stay informed about emerging topics in the interim. The MRS community has provided me with the support, inspiration, and resources to accomplish frontier science throughout my career, and I'm grateful to be an MRS Member!
