During Fusion Energy Week, General Artomics an engaging talk with E. William DeShazer, a seasoned aerospace engineer turned fusion researcher, as he shares his personal journey and professional insights in "Fusion from an Aerospace Perspective."
With a career spanning two decades — from propulsion engineering at GE Aircraft Engines and Gulfstream Aerospace to health physics and now a PhD track at Georgia Tech — DeShazer will explore:
- His decision to change careers mid-life
- What drew him to fusion research
- The overlaps and differences between the fields of aerospace and fusion
- How skills in mechanical and aerospace engineering can contribute to fusion energy innovation
This talk is a private event for graduate students and post-docs currently working at DIII-D National Fusion Facility.
