Meet Our 2024 Fusion Fellows
The achievement of ignition by LLNL in December 2022 was groundbreaking. Moving beyond that to the nation’s decadal vision of commercial fusion energy will require, among other things, creating pathways and opportunities for the next generation to work in fusion. In 2023, the Foundation launched an inaugural Fusion Fellowship opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to work with the Inertial Fusion Energy team at LLNL. This summer, LLF was pleased to bring two more fusion fellows to the Lab.
Livermore and Tracy High School Graduates now in College benefit from Collaboration between Livermore Lab Foundation and Girls Who Code

Willimam B. Shuler Life Sciences Fellow
William “Bill” Shuler dedicated over 29 years at LLNL to astrophysics, high-energy experimental physics, and strategic weapons design. Following his tragic passing in 2021, his sister, Leslie Blain, established the William B. Shuler Fund for Neurodegenerative Disease Research. While Bill’s legacy is tied to the Lab’s mission, Blain saw this fund as a way to honor him and give back to society.
