The Inertial Fusion Energy Science and Technology Accelerated Research (IFE-STAR) Conference is from April 7–11, 2025, in Breckenridge, Colorado. This in-person event bring together scientists and engineers from universities, national labs, and the private sector to discuss the latest developments in IFE research.
Join leading experts and innovators as we dive into essential discussions on IFE science and technology, attend cutting-edge technical talks, and participate in engaging evening poster sessions. This conference offers a unique platform to connect, collaborate, and share knowledge that will shape the future of clean energy.
But it’s not all about the sessions! Take a break and immerse yourself in the beauty of the Rocky Mountains. Enjoy open ski lifts, exhilarating sleigh rides, and ice skating, or explore the charming shops and the free gondola ride that Breckenridge offers. It’s the perfect backdrop for networking and inspiration.
Be part of a global network dedicated to IFE research and innovation. Together, we can propel inertial fusion to the forefront of sustainable energy solutions. Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to be at the heart of groundbreaking discussions!

Request for Information for the Frontier in AI for Science, Security, and Technology (FASST) Initiative is due November 11.
The Department of Energy’s Office of Critical and Emerging Technologies (CET) seeks public comment to inform how DOE and its 17 national laboratories can leverage existing assets to provide a national AI capability for the public interest.
Responses to the RFI are requested by November 11, 2024.
Interested parties may submit comments electronically to FASST@hq.doe.gov and include “FASST RFI” in the subject line of the email.
Calling California Grad Students & Postdocs:
Apply for CCST’s Science Translators Showcase!
The chosen “Science Translators” will participate in a series of virtual policy and communication trainings from CCST and get a chance to explain their research to legislative staffers, agency managers, and senior policy leaders during a networking event at the California State Capitol.
CCST seeks candidates who are eager to learn and practice science communication as well as convey the relevance of their research to public policy questions. The training series and culminating Showcase offer graduate students and postdocs the opportunity to cultivate the skills necessary for science policy advising, meet other innovative researchers, and proudly represent their home institution.

Additional Information:
The CERCES Workshop Series is a two-part workshop series on research advancing clean energy solutions in coordination with communities, to include their goals, priorities, and needs. The workshops are aimed at fostering collaboration among University of California researchers and colleagues at Los Alamos (LANL), Lawrence Livermore (LLNL), and Lawrence Berkeley (LBNL) National Laboratories in this field. The workshops are organized by representatives from UCI, UC Berkeley, UC Davis, UC Merced, UCR, UCSB, UCSD, LANL, LBNL, and LLNL.
WASHINGTON, DC – College and university faculty at emerging research institutions are invited to apply to collaborate with national laboratory scientific research staff on research projects of mutual interest, the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science announced today.
Extensive support during the application process is available, as well as a summer internship fair in November sponsored by the Office of Workforce Development for Teachers and Scientists (WDTS) and the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education.
