Most of the research looks at either understanding the mechanisms of radiation on materials and fuels to address the challenges of the current fleet of reactors or looks at materials and fuels for the next generation of reactors. The University of Michigan was among the first partner facilities to become a part of NSUF.</span><span class="EOP SCXW136151419 BCX0" data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":257}" style="background-color: transparent; color: windowtext; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 18.2042px; font-family: sans-serif, Sans-serif_EmbeddedFont, sans-serif;"> </span><span data-contrast="auto" xml:lang="EN-US" lang="EN-US" class="TextRun SCXW136151419 BCX0" style="background-color: transparent; color: windowtext; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 18.2042px; font-family: sans-serif, Sans-serif_EmbeddedFont, sans-serif; font-variant-ligatures: none !important;">(MC)</span><span data-contrast="auto" xml:lang="EN-US" lang="EN-US" class="TextRun SCXW136151419 BCX0" style="background-color: transparent; color: windowtext; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 8.5pt; line-height: 18.2042px; font-family: sans-serif, Sans-serif_EmbeddedFont, sans-serif; font-variant-ligatures: none !important;"><span class="NormalTextRun Superscript SCXW136151419 BCX0" data-fontsize="11" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; vertical-align: super;">2</span></span><span data-contrast="auto" xml:lang="EN-US" lang="EN-US" class="TextRun SCXW136151419 BCX0" style="background-color: transparent; color: windowtext; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 18.2042px; font-family: sans-serif, Sans-serif_EmbeddedFont, sans-serif; font-variant-ligatures: none !important;"> is dedicated to the micron and nanoscale imaging and analysis of materials.
