1st June 2022 UKCRIC Doctoral Skills Network webinar 12.00-13.30
The GREEN CDT website is a consortium of the five universities of Lancaster, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield.
"GREEN aims to develop and deliver the research and skills required to address key challenges in the field of nuclear energy across the entire fuel cycle.
Researchers in our CDT carry out research that underpins the safe and extended operation of existing reactors and the future development of safe, secure and sustainable new build nuclear power plants in addition to back end research on spent fuel, decommissioning and waste management."
At this webinar hosted by the UKCRIC Doctoral Skills Network, GREEN CDT postgraduate students presented short talks and elevator pitches for their current study. Watch the full webinar on the YouTube link below.
