DOE Isotope Program Issues Annual Update
July 14, 2023
The DOE Isotope Program (DOE IP) supports a network of national laboratories and universities to produce and sell isotopes in short supply or when no other production capability exists domestically. The DOE IP supports research and development to advance new production and processing capabilities of critical isotopes. DOE IP is also the primary global supplier for promising targeted alpha therapy radioisotopes and is increasing their production to meet the significant growth in demand.
