Following last years’ success and highlighting the important work done in the area, this year’s programme will again feature a session on ‘Complementary Safety Assessment of Research Reactors following the Fukushima-Dai-Ichi NPP’s Accident’. And last but not least our Russian partners will present their ‘PIK’ reactor.
