Event Details

Join Professor Marek Flaska of Pennsylvania State University for a talk on radiation detection.

Marek Flaska is an assistant professor in the Ken and Mary Alice Lindquist Department of Nuclear Engineering at Pennsylvania State University. His research focuses on designing radiation detection systems for nuclear non-proliferation, safeguards, forensics, and fundamental physics applications.

Marek received his B.Sc. and M.Sc. in nuclear engineering from Slovak Technical University; he earned his PhD. in applied physics from the Delft University of Technology, then completed a postdoctoral appointment at Oak Ridge National Lab. He was an associate research scientist at the University of Michigan.

This talk will be of interest not only to staff and students in Engineering and Nuclear, but also to colleagues and students in Chemistry and Physics with an interest in inorganic nanoscale materials for nuclear applications.
