On 19 May 2021, the Young Generation Network of the Nuclear Society of Slovenia (YGN NSS), in cooperation with the Reactor Engineering Division of the Jožef Stefan Institute, organized the 8th Young Generation Nuclear Conference YGNC. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the conference was held virtually this year. At the conference, young nuclear experts from industry and research have presented their work. The audience was firstly addressed by Janez Kokalj, president of YGN NSS, dr. Tomaž Žagar, president of NSS, prof. dr. Leon Cizelj, head of the Reactor Engineering Division, and Jadwiga Najder, vice-president of the Young Generation Network of the European Nuclear Society (ENS YGN). The conference was divided into 5 sections covering the areas of fission, fusion, experimental thermal-hydraulics and severe accidents and together 12 young nuclear experts presented their work. There were also three invited lecturers - dr. Anže Jazbec, operator and shift supervisor at the TRIGA reactor at JSI, Alexandra Ovcharenko, key account director at JSC Rusatom Overseas and Alexander Renev, technical department Deputy director at JSC Rusatom Overseas. The conference was organized and led by Boštjan Zajec, Jan Kren and Janez Kokalj (Reactor Engineering Division, JSI). The conference was attended by around 40 participants from Slovenia and abroad. In their contributions, young nuclear experts presented the direction of development in the field of nuclear energy in Slovenia.
