"Recent Developments in the Quest for Fusion Power" — Presented by Martin Storey

Friday 17 June

Join us for coffee and croissants while listening to current Franco-Australian research. The next seminar is an introduction to the history of nuclear fusion and an update on how close fusion may be to becoming a main contributor to the world’s energy mix. 

In a field which has seen the creation of extraordinary international collaborations, a device first pioneered conceptually 75 years ago by an Australian scientist is today under advanced construction in Southern France. 

Martin Storey is an independent professional engineer in the resources industry and an amateur scientist collaborating with UWA academics on fusion-related research.
