Description: The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), an independent agency created by Congress in 1974, regulates the nation&apos;s civilian use of byproduct, source, and special nuclear materials to ensure adequate protection of public health and safety, to promote the common defense and security, and to protect the environment. The NRC&#146;s Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research (RES) furthers the agency&#146;s regulatory mission by providing technical advice, technical tools and information for identifying and resolving safety issues, making regulatory decisions, and promulgating regulations and guidance. RES will consider applications that support high quality conferences/scientific meetings that are relevant to the mission of the NRC. The NRC recognizes the value to members of the research community and all other interested parties in supporting such forums. A conference/scientific meeting is defined as an open gathering, symposium, seminar, workshop or any other organized, formal meeting where persons assemble to coordinate, exchange, and disseminate information and/or explore or clarify a defined subject, problem, or area of knowledge.
