DESCRIPTION:The [IEEE Vancouver Section](https://vancouver.ieee.ca) and the
  IEEE Future Directions Committee are organizing a series of presentations
  to address the widespread interest in clean energy sources\, new nuclear 
 reactor technologies\, and the various related issues. This series of talk
 s will cover aspects of nuclear energy and the disruptive new technology o
 f Small Modular Reactors. These presentations will be of interest both to 
 engineers who are not nuclear specialists\, and to the general public who 
 are interested in learning about the technology.\n\nTOPIC:\nTechnical Revi
