Jill Hruby, undersecretary for nuclear security of the US Department of Energy (DOE) and administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), recently visited the University of Rochester’s Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE), along with US Representative Joseph Morelle and representatives from the offices of US Senators Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand. During her visit, Hruby met with Rochester researchers and students and toured the LLE’s OMEGA EP laser facilities to learn more about how the LLE plays a key role in providing the science and expertise to support the DOE and NNSA in ensuring a safe, reliable, and secure nuclear security enterprise.
