Miner, Nadine E.; Hernando, Sara

On Wednesday, March 8th and Thursday, March 9th, 2023, the University of Texas at Austin hosted Sandia National Laboratories (Sandia) for “Sandia Day 2023 at UT Austin” with the intention of reviewing, planning and shaping ongoing and future collaborations in key areas that reflect each organization’s priorities and strengths. The event brought together nearly 100 UT and Sandia participants including executive leadership, researchers, faculty, staff, and students. The primary sessions of Sandia Day consisted of a half-day tour of select J.J. Pickle Research Campus facilities, a networking happy hour, leadership meetings, presentations by both Sandia and UT Austin representatives in areas of research strategic priorities: Grid Resiliency, Examining Climate Change, and Microelectronics, and a research poster session with lunch. The group also discussed growth opportunities in the following research areas: nuclear and radiation engineering, pulsed power and fusion physics, and digital engineering, specifically as it related to materials discovery and advanced manufacturing.
