Mike Roberts to be Honored

August 9, 2005

Fusion Power Associates Board of Directors will honor Dr. Michael Roberts of the US Department of Energy Office of Fusion Energy Sciences with a Special Award for the Advancement of Fusion Power. FPA Special Awards have been given periodically since 1980 to recognize individuals who have made some special contribution to the cause of fusion power development.

Roberts will be honored for his "tireless efforts over the past two decades to make ITER a reality." He will also be recognized for his "early efforts to promote the construction of the first U.S. DT-burning tokamak, that led ultimately to the construction of TFTR, and his continuing devotion to international collaborations and to the technology and facilities needed to make fusion power a reality."

The award will be presented at Fusion Power Associates Annual Meeting and Symposium, October 11-12 at the Capitol Hill Club in Washington, DC. The presentation will be in the morning of October 11.
