In fact, Michigan is an incubator of the Trump Administration’s all-of-the-above energy strategy – a strategy that prioritizes innovation over regulation and leverages all available fuel and power sources. DOE, specifically, is committed to helping support America’s innovators and entrepreneurs through research and development (R&D) that will keep our nation competitive, secure, and the global leader in technology, energy, and science.
Take for instance MSU’s Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB). I was honored to speak at the FRIB designation ceremony and meet the scientists who will tackle some of the nation’s greatest challenges using the facility’s premier capabilities.
This new DOE-funded facility, in partnership with Michigan state government and MSU, is a world-class nuclear research center that will revolutionize our understanding of the properties of rare isotopes, nuclear astrophysics, and fundamental interactions in this field. This research will lead to development in technologies that will impact our society in the areas of medicine, homeland security, and more.
