The UCD MNRC strives to be the premier research facility of its kind on the West Coast and in the country. Our reactor design allows for multiple applications ranging from medical applications, research experiments, nondestructive testing, education, and other beneficial uses of nuclear radiation.

We conduct and facilitate a wide variety of research that involves Imaging and Irradiation including:

  • Biomedical Research
    (boron neutron capture therapy, radiopharmaceuticals, biochemistry, genetics and human nutrition)

  • Neutron Activation Analysis
    (archaeology and anthropology, geochemistry, analytic epidemiology, nutrition and immunology, actinide chemistry, elemental analysis for geological samples)

  • Materials Science
    (electronic and mechanical properties, magnetic and crystal structure, nanostructures and excitations, neutron optics, gamma ray scanning, cosmo-chemistry, nondestructive evaluation)

  • Environmental Research

  • Nuclear Engineering

  • Industrial Isotope Research and Development

  • Nondestructive Inspection Techniques

  • Advance Imaging Techniques

If you are interested to conduct research at the UCD MNRC please fill in this Inquiry form and we will contact you shortly.
