  <title><![CDATA[Fusion Energy’s Starry Future]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>In today’s world, the search for viable, climate-friendly energy sources is a major focus of scientific research. <a href="https://matter-systems.gatech.edu/people/eric-vogel">Eric Vogel</a>, Hightower Professor in the <a href="https://mse.gatech.edu/">School of Materials Science and Engineering</a> and executive director of the <a href="https://matter-systems.gatech.edu/">Institute for Matter and Systems</a> at Georgia Tech, is contributing to this effort through a $107 million project funded by the U.S. Department of Energy. The project, in collaboration with the <a href="https://www.srnl.gov/"><strong>Savannah River National Laboratory</strong></a> (SRNL), aims to make fusion energy a commercially viable option.</p><p><a href="https://mse.gatech.edu/news/fusion-energys-starry-future">Read the full story</a></p>]]></body>
