NuFor is the dedicated forum aimed at bringing together academia, industry and government, to share developments, successes and highlights in the field of Nuclear Forensics with a wider, multidisciplinary audience.
This annual conference provides a collaborative space for international discussion and alliance in this unique field. As well as engaging with UK and US national laboratories, NuFor attracts participation from policy makers and law enforcement organisations, providing a multidisciplinary engagement on the importance of Nuclear Forensics and Nuclear Security in the modern world. This conference is designed to be accessible to early careers professionals as well as subject matter experts. Additionally, the first day of the conference has a focus to engage with pre-university education to promote STEM pathways into the Nuclear and National Security sectors.
So, what is Nuclear Forensics? It is the application of materials characterisation, data analysis and assessment of nuclear or radiological materials found outside of regulatory control, involving the identification of materials, intended use and origin to support law enforcement and related investigations.
NuFor aims to highlight the role Nuclear Forensics plays in underpinning sovereign security and the opportunities that exist for those entering into the STEM education pipeline, promoting the exchange of information and good practice between those already involved in Nuclear Forensics and other specialists who could provide wider value to the Nuclear Forensics community.
