The DigiPorFlow group recently attended the Nuclear Waste Services Research Support Office (NWS RSO) Annual Conference held from January 14th to 16th, 2025, in Bristol. The event took place at The M Shed, providing a picturesque venue for engaging with experts and peers in the field of radioactive waste disposal.
