I had a great time covering a variety of topics in my visit to the @NuclearTitans podcast. Thanks for inviting me to talk about my own journey, my research, and my outreach interests.
Listen in to our latest episode featuring Paul Wilson, Chair of the Department of Nuclear Engineering & Engineering Physics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. This episode is another installment in our Titans of Teaching series, which highlights standout professors.

It was great to participate in the @UWMadison #175 celebration at @shinefusion in Janesville yesterday. We discussed how @UWMadisonNEEP played a role in the ideas that led to this new exciting technology
UW-Madison is celebrating its 175th anniversary Tuesday with an event that recognizes the launch of new technology to fight cancer. wmtv15news.com/2024/06/25/sh…

Do none of the commenters (or the OP) want to acknowledge that this a graph of the *SHARE* of generation and not the absolute generation? Nuclear energy, for example, generates roughly as much today on a global basis as it ever has
In terms of share of global electricity output, coal peaked in 1905. Hydro peaked 100 years ago. Oil before the, well, oil crisis. Nuclear peaked in the 1990s and gas, maybe, has just passed its peak. And then there is the yellow line...
