The U.S. National Academies and Russian Academy of Sciences will organize a joint symposium to discuss progress, challenges, and opportunities for conversion of research reactors from highly enriched uranium to low enriched uranium fuel. The symposium will address the following topics:
• Recent progress on conversion of research reactors, with a focus on U.S.- and Russian-origin reactors.
• Lessons learned for overcoming conversion challenges, increasing the effectiveness of research reactor use, and enabling new reactor missions.
• Future research reactor conversion plans, challenges, and opportunities.
• Actions that could be taken by U.S. and Russian organizations to promote conversion.
