Congratulations to Eric Lang for starting last month in his new role as a postdoctoral researcher at Sandia National Laboratory in Albuquerque, NM. Eric successfully defended his thesis titled “Deciphering the role of dispersoids in dispersion-strengthened tungsten alloys on the mechanical properties and irradiation-driven response under nuclear fusion reactor-relevant conditions” in September 2020. Eric’s work will be published in several peer-reviewed papers that highlight his work in recrystallization and PMI properties of dispersion-strengthened tungsten materials developed for future fusion reactors in RSSEL in collaboration with Prof. Jessica Krogstad of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Illinois.
