On February 16-19, PPPL hosted the ICC Workshop (Innovative Confinement Concepts).  This coincided with Bill Gates’ TED talk, in which he proposed nuclear fission innovations as a solution to the world energy+CO2 crisis.  These two events can be juxtaposed with interesting implications for Fusion research strategy.

My recap here.

Sounds like his definition of leading scientists is more in line with Obama’s advisors than the ICC Workshop’s. How’d the presentation go, Eric?
