Young-Carla - A prequel to “a step-by-step guide to nuclear innovation policy.”
View through CrossRef
In 2016, Erin Burns and Todd Allen introduced Carla, a fictitious graduate nuclear engineer with
an idea for a new type of nuclear energy technology, and explained how well-crafted policies
could improve government partnerships to assist Carla in taking her idea to commercial
demonstration. Six years later, how far have we come in establishing an environment that would
create and support a young innovator like Carla? Do we have a set of operating principles that
drives innovation and deployment of new ideas, or that supports the emergence and
professional advancement of many Carlas? This document suggests ways in which we can create an environment in which more people want to be—and are able to be—like Carla?
