Radiochemistry program at UNLV

Fri, Apr 24, 2009 (2:40 p.m.)

UNLV's radiochemistry program, including a research center, was established using federal earmarks, but is working toward financial independence and has already won more than $1 million in funding from industry and sources that require researchers to compete for money. The program collaborates with Los Alamos and other national laboratories, and is generating research that could lead to patents and, eventually, marketable products that could bring revenue to the university.
