For the past six weeks, 12 college students have had the opportunity to learn all that the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory has to teach about a vital but often overlooked area of chemistry--one that spans everything from nuclear reactors and the safe handling of nuclear material to hospital diagnostic tools and cutting-edge medical research. Sponsored by the DOE and the American Chemical Society, the Summer School in Nuclear and Radiochemistry is now entering its thirtieth year instructing some of the country's best and brightest undergraduates in all things nuclear science.
