ORAU is an independent third party with decades of experience managing all phases of scientific peer and merit reviews. While managing a fully integrated peer review and grants management system, known as PeerNet, our peer review team is always looking for innovative solutions to improve on current processes and capabilities.
This blog explains how ORAU has been involved with educating the public about nuclear energy for decades (starting with “This Atomic World”) and how we’re involved in where the industry is headed in the future.
Chinmayee Govinda Raj, Ph.D., is a NASA Postdoctoral Fellow who conducts research for the Lunar Explorer Instrument for Space Biology Applications, or LEIA Project, at the NASA Ames Research Center. The LEIA Project will send microbes to the southern hemisphere of the moon on the upcoming Artemis II mission. Further Together host Michael Holtz talks to Govinda Raj about her fellowship, and the fact that she is an outlier in her family. She says everyone in her family is an artist of some kind, and she wanted a change of pace. She knew from an early age that she wanted to work for NASA, but suffered from imposter syndrome. Still she took her journey one step at a time to get where she is today. Listen to the conversation to learn more. To learn about the NASA NPP, visit https://npp.orau.org.
