Congratulations Mitchell!
ICONE is the premier global conference on nuclear reactor technology. Leaders from industry, government and academia gather each year to present and explore cutting edge technical issues and solutions for the challenges that the nuclear industry faces today. Through the ICONE student program, the conference also fosters the development of future nuclear professionals. It has been jointly sponsored by ASME (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers) and the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers and the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers (JSME) since 1991–and co-sponsored with the Chinese Nuclear Society since 2005.
