Grant Agreement 633053 was signed today in Brussels between the European Commission and EUROfusion. Its goal: realising fusion electricity to the grid by 2050!

Experiments at Princeton University have shown that magnetic reconnection converts about 50% of the magnetic energy into the plasma. The experiment also suggests the process by which the energy conversion occurs, a step that can help tokamak physicists.

All PhD students in fusion related topics are invited to the 2014 edition of the FuseNet PhD event. The 4th edition will be held from 18-20 November, 2014 in Lisbon, Portugal!

Do you like playing games in your summer holiday? Good news! FuseNet has reviewed three ways to fuse particles in your free time!

FuseNet is growing, has welcomed its 50th member and started several action lines to launch new actions in support of fusion education after the summer.

The FuseNet FP7 project ended this year, but the FuseNet association continues its mission. We look forward to continue working together with all members on a new programme of activities in 2014 - the start of the Horizon2020 period!

"We must reach out to the students and provide a clear path of where the fusion programme is heading" was one of the messages learned from the panel discussion on fusion education at MIIFED 2013.

More than 60 students visited the booths and talks at the 2013 Culham open day held on December 12th at CCFE, jointly organised with the York Plasma Institute.
