Prof. Michael Short is an Associate Professor of Nuclear Science and Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, MA, USA, an Adjunct Senior Principal Scientist II in IMRE at A*STAR in Singapore, and the Distinguished Professor of Fusion Technology at ST Engineering in Singapore. His group has spent over a decade investigating coupled materials effects impeding the rapid expansion of carbon-free baseload energy, with an emphasis on materials for nuclear power. Of particular interest to Prof. Short's group are the simultaneous effects of irradiation and corrosion present in nuclear plants, materials to enable the first fleet of commercial fusion reactors, and stopping corrosion in nuclear and geothermal energy systems. Prof. Short holds four degrees from MIT in Nuclear Science & Engineering and Materials Science & Engineering.
