Orthopedics & Sports Medicine
Jump ahead on this page
The framework of the human body is comprised of hundreds of joints and muscles. When even one of these intricate connections is injured, whether by trauma or degenerative disease, your whole body can feel the effects. At IU Health Orthopedics & Sports Medicine, we know you want relief, and we're committed to helping reduce your pain. From your first appointment through treatment, rehabilitation and follow-up, we provide high-quality, compassionate care while we help return you to your previous level of activity quickly and safely—so you can get back to doing what really matters.
Our highly skilled physicians treat the entire musculoskeletal system, including bones, joints, muscles and the spine. Our patients come from all demographics—from young or professional athletes to those with tumors, trauma or musculoskeletal disorders. Whenever possible, we exhaust non-operative treatment before recommending surgery, but when it becomes necessary, our surgeons provide advanced joint replacements, reconstruction, and minimally invasive spine surgeries.
As the only nationally ranked orthopedic program in Indiana, according to U.S.News & World Report, we've partnered with the Indiana University School of Medicine to combine the most innovative treatments with the latest technology, ensuring our patients receive individualized and comprehensive care.
Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Treatment
IU Health Orthopedics & Sports Medicine provides nationally recognized expertise in joint replacement and revision surgery for knees, hips, shoulders, elbows, hands, ankles and feet.
Our dedicated joint replacement specialists use cutting-edge therapies and treatment options to speed patient recovery times and reduce pain. We perform a high volume of surgical joint replacement procedures each year. This extensive experience enables specialists at IU Health Orthopedics & Sports Medicine to excel at effectively treating arthritis and joint pain—from the most common cases to the most complex procedures.
If you or a family member has experienced or suspects a concussion, Indiana University Health Orthopedics & Sports Medicine has certified physicians to provide concussion assessment and treatment. Law now requires any student athlete suspected of having a concussion to be removed from the game or practice and "evaluated by a licensed healthcare provider trained in the evaluation and management of concussions and head injuries." Our ImPACT certified physicians conveniently located throughout the state can validate the injury using the ImPACT Test helping to manage your concussion more efficiently.
How much do you know about concussions? Take our quiz and find out for yourself.
Joint Replacement
Procedures can be performed on the hip, knee, shoulder, ankle, elbow and finger. And if revision surgery is ever needed, we can repair and replace the worn-out implant. Our physicians have performed thousands of these procedures, always with the goal of returning you to freedom of mobility.
If you are interested in learning if a joint replacement would be right for you, we encourage you to attend one of our free joint replacement seminars. Seminars are offered at mutiple locations throughout the year, find one near you.
Musculoskeletal Oncology
This discipline treats patients with benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous) tumors of bones and muscles, as well as spinal and extremity soft tissue tumors. To learn more about the orthopedic oncology team at IU Health, click here.
Orthopedic Trauma
Orthopedic trauma specialists at Indiana University Health have proven experience treating a continuum of trauma cases—from more common injuries to the most complex trauma cases. Our trauma physicians work closely with other specialty physicians, as needed, to develop a tailored and comprehensive care plan for patients with traumatic injuries. Our specialists provide expert care, including both surgical and non-surgical treatment options, for adults and children with acute injuries or complications. Services include, but are not limited to the following:
- Difficult fractures of the upper and lower extremities, including open and complex periarticular injuries
- Pelvic and acetabular (hip) fractures
- Geriatric or fragility fractures
- Extremity injuries requiring hyperbaric oxygen
- Non-unions (fractures that did not heal)
- Mal-unions (fractures that healed in poor position)
- Infections and osteomyelitis (bone infection)
- Arthritis after fracture
As part of our commitment to high-quality orthopedic trauma care, we work with Indiana University Health Physicians to educate future orthopedic trauma surgeons. We offer an advanced Orthopedic Trauma Fellowship to those wishing to obtain advanced training in treatment of the multiply injured patient.
A final critical component of the treatment plan, "rehab" aims to restore function and mobility. Because this process is not instantaneous, our team is committed to achieving measurable progress along the road to recovery.
Spinal surgeries can now be performed with minimally invasive techniques that correct spinal disorders and chronic back and neck pain, while sparing surrounding soft tissues. A smaller-incision, minimally invasive procedure means a faster recovery, and less pain following surgery.
Sports Medicine
Whether you're a recreational or competitive athlete, or someone who wants to regain an active lifestyle, IU Health Orthopedics & Sports Medicine can help you get back on track to optimum performance. We deliver a full-spectrum of sports performance training and primary sports medicine care—prevention, diagnosis and treatment of non-operative sports-related injuries. When further intervention is necessary, orthopedic surgery, rehabilitation and physical therapy are available. Learn more about our IU Health Orthopedics & Sports Medicine offers same-day appointments and walk-in services.
Sports Performance
Athletes today must take advantage of every opportunity to perform at the ever increasing levels of competition. IU Health Sports Performance specializes in sport-specific training to develop an athlete's potential. Our certified coaches and training staff work in a highly advanced facility that provides the best environment to foster superior athletic development by integrating the latest in science and performance medicine. We can help you achieve the next level of athletic performance whether you're a professional athlete, an adult looking for a new fitness program, or a youth athlete aspiring to take your performance to the next level.
Upper and Lower Extremities
IU Health Orthopedics & Sports Medicine specializes in conditions of the upper body (shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand), as well as the lower body (hips, knees, ankles and feet). Our orthopedic specialists treat conditions including:
- Arthritis
- Athletic injuries

Worst Name Changing Game
I don't know if this has been done before but I had idea of a game. It's about writing your least favourite name then having the next person change it to something you might like. For example:
I write my least favourite names (girl and boy): Sarah and Barclay
Next user changes them: Sara and Barney
Then adds their least favourite names to be changed: Mary and Edward
Sorry if anyone's name or loved ones names are mentioned, you probably dislike names I love because you knew someone horrible with that name, this is just for a bit of fun.
Ok so me first (note I actually don't mind either of these names it was really hard to think of names I don't like being a name obsessor, I only chose these two because I think they're a bit unoriginal):

Comments On Mar 31, 2013:This is a fantastic looking helmet from One Industries. Colors are really sharp. Helmet is stylish. My only real gripe is that this particular model is on the small side compared to any of their other helmets I have bought previously. I got it on closeout for a great price so was glad I hadn't paid top dollar for it...

Fish Identification
Largemouth bass
A member of the sunfish family, the largemouth bass gets its name from its large mouth, which is a good way to distinguish it from other species of bass. When the mouth is closed, the upper jaw extends well beyond the eye. The color of largemouth bass varies depending on the clarity of the water it inhabits. In relatively clear water, it has a dark green upper body fading into a whitish belly, with a series of dark marks forming a dark horizontal band along the middle of the body. As water clarity decreases, the colors become more muted and the fish tends to be more silver in appearance.
Scientific Name: Micropterus salmoides
State Record: 22 lbs. 4 oz.

Hey, man, that looks great. Nice job, indeed.
Hey All,
I have been a long time lurker here (although this is my first post). After all the useful material I have found here I thought it time I offered something back. Here's my interpretation of Mike Schley's Level 1 map for H3 Pyramid of Shadows for VTT play.
The map was produced in Photoshop, the URL leads to a downsized (65% reduction) version of the master. I plan to post up Level 2 and 3 just as soon as I get some time to complete them.
Hey, man, that looks great. Nice job, indeed.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
-J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)
My Maps ~ My Brushes ~ My Tutorials ~ My Challenge Maps
Very nice...clean lines. I like it.
Fine map! One thing which looks odd, however, is the bevel and emboss effect on the doors.
Nicely done...

Mind you, we're not exactly young either...eyesight's one of the first things to go, so they say.
Thanks for the positive comments everyone. I am steadily working through Level 2 as I type this, I am about 65% done with just a few encounter areas to complete. On the topic of the doors I see both sides (he he), I'll see if i can tone them down slightly without losing too much pop.
I've said it before on another forum, but I'll say it again here. These look really nice, there is enough is just the right amount of details to convey what is needed, but not the clutter or overworking that would detract from the usefullness of these maps.
Very well done. When my campaign gets to this point I will be using these maps. Thanks.

Gulls and Pelicans
Photograph by Mark Dodge, My Shot
Taken along the Russian River in Goat Rock State Beach, Sonoma County, California. The shore was very rough that day and the skies were overcast. Everyone seemed to settle in and rest. I was amazed at the number of pelicans along the river's edge. This shot represents only about 30 percent of the total number of birds there. It was a spectacular sight.

Seagulls Feeding
Photograph by Dale Williamson, My Shot
During a weekend getaway to the Oregon Coast, my wife opened a window late one afternoon to toss bits of a cracker to some waiting gulls. Before many tosses, several gulls lined up for the treats, sometimes entering the room with their wings as they swooped past. I started clicking away (Canon PowerShot Pro 1). It was only when reviewing the captured images that we realized how acrobatic these beautiful birds can be.

At Bodega Bay, California, wild pelicans dive into the sea to catch fish. This one came back to the surface with at least three fish in his mouth. The pelican was waving his beak to swallow the fish.

Snapping Pelican
Photograph by Ryan Kennedy, My Shot
This photo was taken on a deep sea fishing boat on the way back toward shore. The pelicans flew out to the boat and landed on it to meet us in hopes of food. I got a little too close to this one so he snapped at me, and my only defense was to push the camera button.

Seabird With Fish

This picture was taken in Savannah, Georgia, on Skidaway Island. I kept seeing this bird bob up and down in the water, and finally he came up with this fish in his mouth.

Swimming Loon
Photograph by April Stampe, My Shot
This loon came really close to shore, giving me a great picture! I just love how there are water droplets from under the loon's eye after it has just came up from a dive.

Black-Browed Albatross
Photograph by Allan Hansen, My Shot
The black-browed albatross (Thalassarche melanophrys) coming in for a landing (with feet out to slow down) on Steeple Jason in the Falkland Islands. It is a fantastic place—the largest colony of black-browed albatrosses breed here. I hope to return one day.

Just me being confused and all. And politics. And Pit Bulls. And a couple of babies.
That was the most elaborate prelude to cute kid pictures that I've ever seen. I'm a little bit jealous. Well done sir.
Excellent lead up! to a most wonderful set of pictures.
dude, I just noticed you posted a link of my tshirt, that is so sweet of you!!!!
I wonder if I can join the stay at home dads club. Wonder if I can bring my dog and call him my son. I'm a charismatic charlatan, just might be able to get away with it ;)
Something I'm learning as a writer, about great writing, is that it bears witness, and readers put in about 75% of the meaning. To hell with greater truth. If you moralize or have an agenda, you might write well, but you steal a little bit of your reader's freedom. You aren't stealing anybody's freedom.
I just watched the movie The Caller, it didn't steal my freedom either.
Great post.
That last picture is so worth it . . .
Great post!
Ewww babies they don't even taste that good.
Just kidding (pun intended (of course)).
You are on a roll aren't you with all these great posts in a row... what are you eating?
I think that the point is that if we could all behave towards each other the way that these two children were in that moment in time, the world would be a much better place.
Agree with Free Man - beautiful introduction to cute. A little cute in life isn't too bad. I saw something pretty friggin' cute yesterday (A toothless little Japanese girl giving a hug to an adult dressed up in a squirrel outfit. Sounds stupid, but was mushy cute).
Freeman, I can't just put kids pictures without the introduction, see? That kid WILL NOT hijack this blog, no matter how many dimples he has!
Sebastien, of course. Although it's a Baltimore thing. But you're welcome, if you're ever in the neighborhood, to either come with your dog or to stop on your way at one of our many "Rent-A-Child" centers.
Dave, you're right. If I'm honest with what I'm doing here, no matter how random it turns out, then people will connect, right? I'm doing my best... Thanks.
TheCheekOfGod, thank you. And thank God for inventing the camera. (Or maybe it was Einstein? Or Bell? Or that dude in the wheelchair?)
SJ, I've been getting much smarter since I started eating Baby Einstein DVDs.
Shelli, yep. Kids don't know what's supposed to look off, you know? I was in a store, and a little girl with some kind of problem with her face came in, and I was afraid that he was going to run away from her or laugh, but it was normal, you know? We all, parents and teachers and other adults, fail our children at some point by teaching them what's normal. We can't help ourselves.
Lirun, thank you!
Ellie, you sure you didn't dream that? Sounds like a David Lynch movie. Thanks!
Really? I tawt like you Israelians all ate like you know hummus lolz.
I don't do the hummus actually. Maybe that's why Lirun calls me a self-hating Israeli.
Point is? We all start off with hearts full of love. The point is, when and where does that change? And how do we get it back?
And Frosty, how important it is for me to make sure he's a good boy who shares his stuff and says hi to strangers and waves at bus drivers, while I avoid eye contact with everyone I meet.
I can't believe I had so much to say about the whole working in jail post and I don't even remember writing any of it...
VERY cute pictures. Good thing they didn't steal the show or anything.
Jill, remember when I had a heart and wrote emotional stuff? It's funny to look at old posts and see how much I've changed. And I guess you're saying you may have changed since then too? And I don't mind my boy stealing the show. I admit that a picture of these two is much better than anything I've ever written.
obviously your heeding to lebanon's demands..
Lirun, you mean with the hummus? I still reserve the right to eat it if I please. Israel would have been better off if people spread Nutella instead of hummus.
This is very well said. When you sign up to make a blog you should have to agree to this in the terms of service.
I dunno - I must have changed quite a bit. (although I only see a month on that old post & not a year). On the other hand, the link to "working in a jail" is still the one I'm drawn to click on, so how much could I have really changed?!?!? :-)
TBC, you mean about making a point? You know, all blogs and all of the internet is a bunch of people screaming "Look at me!" but as long as people can take something out of it then that's fine. It's the people who publish stuff only for themselves that I don't get (because, secretly, they want to be famous bloggers. Like What's-her-name with the cute daughter and the balding husband. And Huffington.) Oh, and cool blog, by the way. I have a love-hate relationship with the city, but at least it makes me feel something, you know?
Jill, you mean you didn't click on ALL the links??? YOU'RE ONLY CHEATING YOURSELF, YOU KNOW!
Yeah (hanging head in shame). And you know on the sleep in your clothes response above, I neglected to mention that lately I've been giving serious consideration to going back to school for a masters. Can you imagine? I'd have to not only sleep in my clothes but wear disposable clothing so I didn't have to do laundry either. Egads.
Good luck, Jill. It's good to keep busy, you know? But don't work too hard.

Charleston Catholic continues its roll
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- It must almost be tournament time, because Charleston Catholic is starting to hum along at a high level of play.
Zach Casto poured in a career-best 23 points and the Irish shot at a better than 60 percent clip for a second straight game Tuesday night, rolling to a 78-48 victory over Parkersburg Catholic at the Charleston Catholic Athletic Facility.
It marked the 12th straight win for the Irish (14-1), who have held down the No. 1 spot in the Class A rankings the past four weeks.
The Irish have won their last three by a total of 78 points. Even though they're always a factor in the postseason - having reached the Class A title game seven times in the previous eight seasons - they seemed to be in tournament form Tuesday, beating up on the No. 4 team in the state.
"We're playing good basketball right now,'' said Irish coach Bill McClanahan. "Our IQ's good, our execution's good, our shooting's good, our energy's good, our preparation's good. We're at a good level right now, and this is the level we need to be at to get ready for March. We're at a good place right now, and we need to keep pushing a little bit.''
Charleston Catholic again came out smoking, hitting 10 of 14 shots in the first quarter and never really cooled off. The Irish finished 29 of 48 for 60 percent, following a 62-percent effort in Friday's 62-42 win over Wheeling Central. The 78 points was five off their season-high.
"Our team's playing a lot harder and a lot more unselfish,'' said Casto, who made his first six field goal tries after going 6 of 6 against Central. "Our defense is getting sharper and our plays are getting way sharper.''
Casto wound up 8 of 10 from the floor and also pulled down seven rebounds. Garrett McCarty added 19 points, five assists and four steals.
The Irish even free-lanced a bit, as their point guard (McCarty) tied for the team lead in rebounds with seven and their all-state post player (Nick George) dished out a team-high seven assists.
Other indicators of the Irish strength: They had no turnovers in the first quarter in building their big lead (and just six for the game) and never committed enough fouls in either half to put the Crusaders into the 1-and-1 bonus.
"It's February. It's typical of a Coach McClanahan team,'' said Parkersburg Catholic coach Rob Strcula. "This is when they hit their stride. They always peak come February or March. We had them at a bad time, but that's what you get when you play Charleston Catholic.''
The Crusaders (14-3), who lost to Ritchie County with two starters sitting out last week, were at full health Tuesday - at least until starting center Brady Kurucz suffered a knee and ankle injury late in the first quarter and sat out the rest of the game.
"We just put forth a poor effort,'' said Strcula, whose team lost to the Irish by five points in December. "It was all about their level of energy. We didn't match it.''
Joe Padden led the Crusaders with 14 points. Jake Ullman and Ben Collie scored 11 apiece.
Charleston Catholic's play was often spotty over its first 12 games, with nearly half those contests decided by seven points or less, but that's not been the case recently.
"Honestly, at the very beginning of the season, our team thought we were really good at the time,'' Casto said, "but then we came to a quick conclusion that we weren't - I think it was after the Poca loss. It really opened our eyes to the whole playing field.
"Our team was not as good as we think, We can be - and we are getting there - but now we know it's going to take a lot of hard work and stuff like that in practice.''

If Nicole Miller's collection at Lincoln Center is any indication, it looks like we'll be getting more masculine next winter. Dubbing her line "Menswear With a Twist: Raiding the Boyfriend's Closet," Miller's show on Friday night came packed with black-on-black formfitting tuxedos, strong boxy blazers, and a few girly touches by way of plaid tartan skirts – because it wouldn't be Nicole Miller without a few showstopping prints, of course.

Sandia National Laboratories' Cooperative Monitoring Center is celebrating its 20th anniversary of promoting the principles of cooperation and the value of technology in support of international security agreements.
Since it was established in 1994, the CMC has worked to address critical security issues by bringing together policy and technical experts from different nations.

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has entered a contract with IBM to deliver a next-generation supercomputer in 2017. The system, to be called Sierra, will serve NNSA's Advanced Simulation and Computing program.
Procurement of Sierra is part of DOE-sponsored Collaboration of Oak Ridge, Argonne and Lawrence Livermore national labs (CORAL) to accelerate the development of high performance computing. CORAL will result in delivery to each laboratory of a supercomputer expected to provide about five times the performance of today's top systems.
Under the contracts, Livermore and Oak Ridge will work with IBM, NVIDIA and Mellanox to deploy systems of about 150 petaflops to advance science and ensure national security. Argonne is expected to finalize a contract at a later date.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Symposium on International Safeguards, which takes place every four years in Vienna, Austria, began Monday October 20 with a plenary session featuring remarks from IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano and a keynote address by Department of Energy / National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE/NNSA) Assistant Deputy Administrator for Nonproliferation and International Security Kasia Mendelsohn.
In her remarks to some 700 symposium participants, Ms. Mendelsohn complimented the IAEA for its efforts to implement strengthened safeguards to address ever-increasing challenges to the nonproliferation regime. "More than ever," she stressed, "IAEA safeguards are an essential element of the nuclear nonproliferation regime and of international efforts to verify the peaceful uses of atomic energy." Mendelsohn thanked the Secretariat for going to "extraordinary lengths over the last year to explain how safeguards implementation has evolved, particularly at the level of the state as a whole."
While discussing the challenges posed by the greater availability of proliferation-sensitive information and the growing number of countries with nuclear activities, she encouraged symposium participants to consider and identify options to help the IAEA, as appropriate, find the best possible technologies, procedures, and practices for safeguards implementation. She emphasized that "nuclear nonproliferation is a global challenge and the entire global community has a major stake in maintaining the effectiveness and credibility of the international safeguards system."
Noting that "the United States has long considered the international safeguards system to be a central pillar of the nuclear nonproliferation regime's strategy for preventing the spread of nuclear weapons," Mendelsohn talked in detail about U.S. contributions to the IAEA safeguards system, including the U.S. Support Program (USSP) for IAEA Safeguards and DOE/NNSA's Next Generation Safeguards Initiative (NGSI).
In this context, she summed up her remarks by urging the assembled experts at the symposium to work together "to make real progress on promoting peaceful uses of nuclear energy, strengthening safeguards, and preventing proliferation."
The Symposium featured more than 300 presentations, including 43 from DOE/NNSA headquarters and the National Laboratories. DOE/NNSA representatives also chaired or co-chaired seven technical sessions featuring topics such as nondestructive assay (NDA) measurements, training and education in nuclear nonproliferation and safeguards, new trends in the application of statistical methods for safeguards, challenges in spent fuel verification, and safeguards by design.

More than 65 contractor and federal employees from 20 organizations recently met at the Y-12 National Security Complex to share safety culture best practices and lessons learned. The two-day workshop featured more than two dozen presentations on creating and improving workplace safety culture, including sessions on developing monitoring panels, assessing performance, and improving trust and communication.
NPO and CNS sponsored the event, which drew participants from DOE, NNSA, the national labs (Lawrence Livermore, Oak Ridge, Sandia and Idaho), production and environmental management sites (Y-12, Pantex, Savannah River, Kansas City, Nevada, ETTP and WTP), local organizations (Isotek Systems and ORAU) and labor representatives from the Atomic Trades and Labor Council, International Guards Union of America and Knoxville Building and Construction Trades Council.

Some 50 walkers representing Y-12 participated in The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Light The Night Walk held recently at the University of Tennessee's Circle Park. This year marks the 10th year Y-12 employees have raised funds and shined a light on the importance of finding cures for and providing access to treatments for blood cancer patients. Y-12's team is striving to meet its $20,000 goal, making the 10-year total more than $200,000. Currently, the team has raised more than $17,700. Consolidated Nuclear Services Mission Support Vice President Darrell Graddy (far right in photo) was the team management sponsor.
More than 30,000 people packed into AT&T Park recently for the San Francisco Bay Area Science Festival, a day of hands-on experiments, exhibits, games and shows.
The event was the culmination of the Bay Area Science Festival's week-long science festivities, which featured more than 100 fun, interactive science and technology events. During the successful event, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory joined more than 150 exhibitors to bring science to the masses.
LLNL booth was in prime position to welcome visitors and drew in a constant crowd. Science enthusiasts, young and old, flocked to the LLNL booths to participate in "Fun with Science" experiments, test their knowledge with a Science Challenge Game and try to solve the energy crisis with the interactive electronic climate simulation.
Throughout the event, LLNL volunteers Nick Williams and Harold Rogers drew crowds with the Lab's popular "Fun With Science" presentation, translating topics like air pressure, chemical reactions and electricity into interactive experiments like "Elephant Toothpaste," "Marshmallow Man" and "Leaky Bottle."
Before the event, a team of bioengineers from LLNL's Center for Bioengineering fielded questions online about neural implants as part of a series of Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) events organized by the Bay Area Science Festival. The two-hour, live question-and-answer session drew more than 680 questions and answers, landing the thread on the homepage of Reddit.

Don Cook, deputy administrator for Defense Programs at the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), visited Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) on Oct. 31 to address the staff in an all hands presentation and to present NNSA's Defense Programs Awards of Excellence.
"When I was here in 2012, I had some fairly sharp critiques to offer. When I came here in June, there had been great progress, and I'm seeing that again," Cook said. "I am very upbeat about the performance of this team at Livermore, and your role in the weapons program. The rate of change is good and there is a bright future."
Cook discussed a variety of topics, including the current state of the weapons program and current projects in that area; recent results at the National Ignition Facility, in areas such as strength, equation of state, X-ray scattering and compression of diamond; Livermore's leadership in additive manufacturing; and the current environment in Washington. D.C.
He offered both praise and encouragement to the gathered employees, telling the crowd that while much progress has been made, more remains.
"Some assembly is required," Cook said. "You have many of the pieces. My challenge to you is to really put them together."
After concluding his remarks, Cook honored 11 teams of Lab researchers and engineers with Defense Programs Awards of Excellence for work performed in 2013.
Congratulations to Shelley Turner, NNSA Deputy General Counsel, for being named 2014 Woman of the Year by National IMAGE Inc., a nonprofit advocacy organization focused on empowering Hispanics through leadership development.

Employees led area middle and high school students in a "Journey to the Center of the Atom," guiding them as they explored atomic structure and assembled an Isotope Discovery Kit. National Nuclear Science Week is celebrated annually across the country to encourage and bring awareness of nuclear technology and the many careers available within nuclear technology and other high-tech industries.
