"The Easiest Thing Nature Does" lists the many types of skills that are needed and invites you to get involved! It's an exciting time for those involved in fusion worldwide, and it's a sector that is recruiting. And drop by ITER, where construction is underway on the world's largest fusion device. Learn about tokamaks, stellarators and the current dynamism of the private fusion sector. Hear from members of the UKAEA/JET tokamak team, including a mechatronics engineer, a plasma spectroscopist, a senior operations manager, and a diagnostics project engineer. Meet researchers from CIEMAT (Spain), the Max Planck Institute for Fusion Energy (Germany), the ITER Organization, and York University (United Kingdom). In "The Easiest Thing Nature Does," the viewer is introduced to the whats, whys, and hows of fusion by some of the very people who are working on the ground in Europe to make fusion energy a reality.
The European Fusion Education Network FuseNet has released a new 30-minute video on fusion energy.
Opportunities to get involved in the IFMIF-DONES materials research facility, a key step on the European Roadmap to Fusion Energy that is planned for construction in Granada, Spain, will also be highlighted.Ī special event dedicated to "Women in Big Science" is scheduled on Day 1. Some speakers from the ITER Organization will also be present at the event.īusiness opportunities worth EUR 37 million (for the period 2022-2026) will be presented. More than 1,000 participants from 500 companies and organizations across Europe are expected.Ī specific "Technology Transfer track" will provide research entities and companies at the forum with the means to share and seek technologies that have potential cross-market applications, either in Big Science or in other markets. The European Domestic Agency for ITER, Fusion for Energy, is one of the founding members of the Big Science Business Forum. Scheduled from 4 to 7 October 2022 as an in-person event in Granada, Spain, the forum will feature the procurement and technology transfer opportunities of eleven prominent European Big Science research facilities in the areas of astrophysics, space, synchrotrons, high-energy accelerators and fusion.
The 2022 Big Science Business Forum is the "one-stop meeting point" in Europe between Big Science and industry. The nomination deadline for the 20 Fusion Technology Awards is 8 April 2022.įor more detailed information on eligibility, basis for judging, the nomination process or a list of past award recipients, please visit the IEEE-NPSS website and go to the "Fusion Technology Awards" section. Other supporting endorsements are encouraged. Carl Pawley and it should consist of a letter describing the technical contributions on which the nomination is recommended and a current resume of the candidate. The nomination package should be sent to the Fusion Technology Committee Awards Chair, Dr. The awards each consist of a USD 3,000 cash prize and a plaque. The International Science and Technology Cooperation Award was initiated by China's State Council in 1994, and is conferred on foreign individuals or organizations that have made important contribution to China's science and technology development.ĭuring the 30th Symposium on Fusion Engineering (SOFE 2023, 9-14 July 2023), the Fusion Technology Awards for 20 will be presented to individuals who have distinguished themselves through innovation in all fusion approaches that have shown significant promise or progress in the design of reactors or in the understanding of fusion plasmas. He has been a frequent visitor to the country, making more than 30 trips and developing " warm and confident relationships." HE expressed his "honour, pride and joy" at receiving the prize during his acceptance speech in Paris. In the course of his career, he helped to develop scientific collaboration between the Chinese and European fusion communities, particulary between the WEST project that he headed at IRFM and China's EAST tokamak. Eight international scientists had been named during the National Science and Technology Award Conference held in Beijing in November 2021 due to the pandemic, the prize ceremonies are being organized by Chinese embassies.įusion expert Alain Bécoulet and French hematologist Jacques Caen received their awards from the hands of Ambassador Lu Shaye.Īlain Bécoulet is former director of the Institute for Magnetic Fusion Research (IRFM), part of the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA), and current Head of the ITER Engineering Domain. On Monday 28 March 2022, the Chinese Embassy in France organized a ceremony in honour of the two French laureates of the 2020 China International Science and Technology Cooperation Award.
