PPPL's Williams wins award

Michael Williams, head of the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory's engineering and technical infrastructure department, received an award last week from the American Nuclear Society, recognizing his work in fusion science and engineering.

Williams was the recipient of this year's Outstanding Achievement Award from the society's Fusion Energy Division for the research he has conducted during the past 24 years at the PPPL.

While Williams has worked on a variety of prestigious projects during his tenure at PPPL, he said, "In a sense the award was more for my 24 years in the field of fusion energy research than for any one project. It was recognition for all of the years in the project management area."

"More than anything it has been a learning experience. It's great to be recognized for that," Williams said.
